B
1 centimeter : 1 meter
C
1 inch : 5 feet
D
1 inch : 30 inches

Respuesta :

The answer is b. This is because it is 100 cm that makes a meter not 1 cm

Answer:

The scale would produce the largest scale drawing of an object when compared to the actual object is:

  • B . 1 centimeter : 1 meter

The scale represented would be:

  • 1: 100

Step-by-step explanation:

To identify the scale you must know the proportionality in each of the cases, that is, the conversion from one unit to another, as presented below:

1. A. 1 foot: 12 yards

12 yards = 36 feet

Scale represented:

1:36

2. B. 1 centimeter: 1 meter

1 meter = 100 centimeters

Scale represented:

1: 100

3. C. 1 inch: 5 feet

1 foot = 12 inches

Scale represented:

1:60

4. D. 1 inch: 30 inches

Scale represented:

1:30

As you can see, the highest scale corresponds to the units of centimeters and meters since the conversion from meters to centimeters is the highest of the options provided.
