Question

Lamont is making a blue print of his shoebox. He made a drawing of how he would like to make the box. If the drawing is 4 inches long and the scale of the drawing is 1 inch = 2 feet, how long is the box?

Answer 1

Answer:

The box is 8 feet long.

Step-by-step explanation:

1 inch = 2 feet.

Multiply 4 by 2.

4×2=8

I multiplied 4 by 2 because 1-inch equals 2 feet, which means if we multiply both terms by 4, you will get 4 inch = 8 feet.

Hope this helps!
