A scale drawing of Julie's living room is shown below: Picture Will Be Attached! If each 2 cm on the scale drawing equals 4 feet, what are the actual dimensions of the room? Length = 16 feet, width = 12 feet Length = 10 feet, width = 8 feet Length = 32 feet, width = 24 feet Length = 14 feet, width = 12 feet

I picked the first one

Gucchi:

Why though?

Gucchi:

Don't you have to divide 6 and 8 by2

XioGonz:

WAIT My mistake. You're correct

Gucchi:

once you divide 6 by 2 i get 3 and i get 4 once i divide 8

jhonyy9:

using the rule of 3 simple 2 cm mean 4 feet 6 cm mean x x = 6*4/2 = ? feet for width 2 cm mean 4 feet 8 cm mean x x = 8*4/2 = ? feet for length

Gucchi:

then i multiply both numbers by 4

Gucchi:

16

jhonyy9:

\(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @Gucchi then i multiply both numbers by 4 \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\) yes and divide by 2

Gucchi:

16 would be length

Gucchi:

and 12 feet in width

jhonyy9:

Gucchi:
