If the shortest piece, 1, is 120cm, just multiply it by 2, then 5
120 x 2 = 240cm (the 2 in 5:2:1)
120 x 5 = 600cm (the 5 in 5:2:1)
The scale of the drawing by using proportion is 3 : 5.
According to the given question.
Melissa drew a scale drawing of a city.
The width of the park in the drawing is 36 inches.
And the actual width of the park is 60 yards.
As we know that, a proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.
Therefore, the scale of the drawing by using proportion
= 36iches/ 60 yards
= 3/5
= 3 : 5
Hence, the scale of the drawing by using proportion is 3 : 5.
