Respuesta :
The required perimeter of the scale drawing is given as 18 inches.
Given that,
The rectangular floor of a classroom is 30 feet in length and 24 feet in width. A scale drawing of the floor has a length of 5 inches. The perimeter, in inches, of the floor in the scale drawing, is to be determined.
What is the perimeter?
Perimeter is the measure of the figure on its circumference.
Here,
According to the question,
L = 30 feet, W = 24 feet,
for Scaled drawing
l = 5 inch, w = x
Now,
30/5 = 24 / x
6 = 24 / x
x = 24 {1/6}
x = 4,
So the width of the scale drawing is 4 inches,
perimeter of the scaled drawing = 2[l + w]
= 2 [5 + 4] = 18 inches
Thus, the required perimeter of the scale drawing is given as 18 inches.
