Reuben is making a replica of the US flag for his school project.He uses a scale of 0.5 centimeter to 1 inch to draw the flag. The length of the scale drawing is 2.5 centimeters, and its width is 4.75 centimeters. What is the Perimeter of the scale drawing?

What is the Perimeter of the actual flag?

Respuesta :

Answer:

scale = 14.5 cm perimeter

actual = 29 inch perimeter

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the perimeter of the scale drawing, we can just add up the scale sides.

This would be 2.5 + 2.5 + 4.75 + 4.75 = 14.5 cm perimeter

For the real flag, we know that for each cm on the scale flag, it represents 1 inch on the actual flag.

2.5/.5 = 5 inch length

4.75 / .5 = 9.5 inch width

5 + 5 + 9.5 + 9.5 = 29 inch perimeter
