Answer:

49 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Write and solve an equation of ratios, as follows:

7 inches               x

-------------- = -----------------

8 inches        56 inches


Then (8 ")x = (7 ")(56 "), and

x = 392/8 inches = 49 inches.

The actual width of the helicopter is 49 inches.

White raven [17]

Answer:

20 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The scale is 3 inches is to 2 feet

As a ratio, it would be:

\dfrac{3}{2}

The question is what is the actual length of the stage if the drawing is 30 inches. All we need to do is find a ratio proportional to the scale ratio:

\dfrac{3inches}{2feet} = \dfrac{30inches}{xfeet}

Now to find the missing number, cross multiply the fractions first:

\dfrac{3}{2}=\dfrac{30}{x}

(3)(x)=(2)(30)

3x=60

Then solve for x:

3x=60

x=\dfrac{60}{3}

x=20

The answer is 20 feet
