Mr. Parker wants to draw a floor plan of his office, which measures 15 feet wide by 17.5 feet long. He is using the scale 1 2 inch = 3 feet to draw his floor plan. What will be the width of his office on the floor plan?
answer: width of his office on the floor plan is 2.5 inches step-by-step explanation: since we have given that width of his office = 15 feet length of his office = 17.5 feet since we have given that mr. parker is using the scale. 1/2 inch = 3 feet we need to find the width of his office on the floor plan. 3 feet = 1/2 inch 1 feet = 1/2 x 13 = 1/6 inch 15 feet = 15/6 = 5/2 = 2.5 inches
