Answer:

The scale is not reasonable .

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that Sarah is making a scale drawing of a painting that is 48 in. wide by 120 in. high.

Her paper is 12 in. wide and 24 in. tall.

Scale :  1 in. = 4 in.

Since 1 inch = 4 inch

So, 12 inch = 12\times 4 = 48 inches

24 inch = 24\times 4 =96 inches

The given scale is not reasonable because the scale is true for the width but false for the height

Since the actual height is 120 inches and we are getting 96 inches using the given scale .

Hence the scale is not reasonable .

48 / 12 = 4
120 / 24 = 5

This is not a reasonable scale because ratios of tall and wide are not proportional.

Inga [223]

Answer:

15 gumballs

Step-by-step explanation:

There would have to be...

30%*50 green gumballs

We can start by converting 30% to a fraction. Any percentage is just that number over one hundred so...

30/100*50

We can simplify 30/100 by dividing the numerator and the denominator by 10...

3/10*50

Cancel out 10 and 50 (50/10=5)

3*5

15 gumballs would have to be green
