They say that each 1 cm is equivalent to 14 cm in reality. So, if your drawing has 6 cm, in the reality you would have...
so 6:14 right?
6/14*
I would think in something more proportional, 6*14.
so that would be the answer is 6*14?
Exactly.
ty! im a bit confused on this scaling stuff sorry
No problem. In cases like this, you should think this way: if something in the drawing is 1 cm in reality is 6. Then if I double the drawing, 2cm, in reality double the size, 2*6, and so on.
wait so my overall answer would be 84?
Yes, this is the answer.
ahhhh
ty! so just to make sure i have this stuff down right http://gyazo.com/2149f077fd350b492fd208b971523891 this would be 3*12?
amd then i have my answer?
@John_ES
im confused
I was wrong. Your answer is correct.
wait what were you talking about. so i know for next time?
I missread the problem. Your answer was correct this time.
that would be inverse right?
This is like the first problem. 1 cm in the map is 30000 in the real world. So, 12 cm must be 12*30000=360000 cm=3.6 Km in real world.
did you just use real world conversion on cm to km?
Yes, it is ok.
i understand now! thank you so much i just got the next one right, which was 2! thank you!
You're welcome.
@John_ES i am confused back to this way, the answer should be 108 right? http://gyazo.com/6fc7a19c108256ce232f25f694806cdf
