Question

On a blueprint, 1/4 inch represents 1 foot. If a window is supposed to be 60 inches wide, how wide would its representation be on the blueprint?

Answer 1

The ratio remains the same, so:\[
\frac{1}{1/4}=\frac{x}{60}
\]

Answer 2

Cross multiply: \[
\frac 14 x = 60
\]

Answer 3

sorry that's not the answer.

Answer 4

I didn't say it was. You need to solve for \(x\).

Answer 5

exaclty the answer is supposed to be 5/4 but how I don't know.
