The new width is 16.6666666667 inches, which can be rounded to 16.7. 

Width:     5           ?
Height:    6          20

We know that based on the information provided, the new height is 20 inches.

So, in order to solve, you can cross multiply (5 x 20), which would be 100. Then

divide by 6, to get 16.6666666667 or 16.7.

Use the provided ruler to find the scale and the scale factor of the drawing. The scale measures 4 centimeters equal to 120 mete
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

1 : 3000

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Scale measurement as following:

4 centimeters are equal to 120 meters.

To find:

The scale factor = ?

Solution:

First of all, let us learn about the definition of scale factor.

Scale factor means 1 unit on scale is equal to what length of actual measurement.

We are given that 4 cm on scale is equal to 120 meters of actual length.

We need to find nothing but how much 1 cm of scale is equal to actual length.

4 cm of scale = 120 meters or 12000 cm of actual length

Dividing by 4 on both sides, we get:

\frac{4}{4} = 1 cm of scale = \frac{12000}{4} = 3000 cm of actual length

Therefore, the scale factor is <em>1 : 3000</em>
