Answer: 2in
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi, to answer this question we have to apply proportions:
The correct scale on the blueprint is : 1/4 inch represents 3 feet.
So, the proportion is: 1/4 inch/ 3 feet = (1/4) /3
For 24 feet:
x inches /24 feet = x/24
So:
(1/4)/3 = x/24
Solving for x (inches)
[(1/4)/3 ] (24) =x
x =2 inches
