Answer:

The actual width of cut stones is 8 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The scale drawing you are using to cut paving stones for a driveway shows a measurement 2 inches wide and 4.5 inches long.

Scale drawing length = 4.5 inches

Scale drawing breadth = 2 inches

Actual length = 18 inches

Let x be the actual width

So,\frac{4.5}{2}=\frac{18}{x}

x=\frac{18 \times 2}{4.5}

x=8

Hence the actual width of cut stones is 8 inches
