Question

When Mr. and Mrs. Ferguson arrive at their room, Mr. Ferguson decides to check whether the measurement on the website is correct. He measures the side labeled 5 in. on the drawing and finds that it is 13 ft long in the room. Is the scale on the drawing, 1 in. = 2.5 ft, correct? If not, what should the scale be?

Answer 1

not correct because for every 1 inch, there is 2.5ft, so if he meausred the side labeled 5in and it turned out to be 13ft, you would multiply 2.5 by 5, getting an answer of 12.5
