Easy question
first step....48/12=?
you if you want help you r gonna have to cooperate rather than just seeing peepl do the probs and giving the answers right? just taking answers will get u no where! learn to do the problems it makes math and life easier!
11 inches = .92 ft approx .92/4 = x/48 where x is the backyard length on the drawing 4x = 44.16 x = 11.04 feet
11= 4 feet so 48 ft / 4 = 12 * 11 =??? Thats your answer
Use proportions (or ratios). Think 11 inches is to 4 feet as X inches is to 48 feet written as ratios \[ \frac{11 \text{ in}}{4 \text{ ft}} =\frac{X \text{ in}}{48 \text{ ft}}\] multiply both sides by 48 ft and simplify to get \[ 12\cdot 11 \text{ in}= \text{X in} \] As 12*11 (132) is a large number of inches, you might want to convert it to feet: \[ \cancel{12}\cdot 11 \cancel{\text{ in} }\cdot \frac{1\text{ ft}}{\cancel{12} \cancel{\text{ in}}}= 11\text{ ft}\]
