Answer:
5feet by 4/3feet
Step-by-step explanation:
The scale use for a model of kitchen is 1/4 in = 1/2 ft In the model, the kitchen measures 2 1/2 by 2 /3 in. What are actual dimensions of the kitchen.
From the question, we were given the conversation rate of 1/4 in = 1/2 ft In the model,
To get actual dimensions of the kitchen if the kitchen measures 2 1/2 by 2 3 in. Then
✓Let us convert 2 1/2in to feet first= 5/2in as improper fraction.
If 1/4 in = 1/2 ft
5/2in = x ft
Then cross multiply, we have
(5/2×1/2)= 1/4 × X
5/4 = 1/4X
Make X subject of the formula
X= (5/4)/(1/4)
X=5ft.
✓Let us convert 2/3in to feet
If 1/4 in = 1/2 ft
2/3in = x ft
Then cross multiply, we have
1/4×X=2/3×1/2
X=(2/3×1/2)/(1/4)
X=4/3feet
Therefore, the actual dimensions of the kitchen is 5feet by 4/3feet
