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

fredd [130]
Calcualate 40% (0.40) times 20 to get that there are 8 boys in the class. The rest must be girls, so 20 - 8 gives you 12 girls. 25% (0.25) times the 8 boys gives you that 2 of the boys wear glasses. 50% (0.5) times the 12 girls tives you that 6 girls wear glasses. Add together the 2 boys and the 6 girls that wear glasses to get that a total of 8 students wear glasses.
