Subtraction is finding the difference between two numbers whereas division is
putting numbers into equal pairs or undoing multiplication ( if that helps )
So...
If they say divide 6 by 2 they mean put six into equal pairs of 2 which would equal 3
E.g.:-
( there are 3 pairs of six cars in twos )
You can't use subtraction because that will just find the number difference of 6 and 2 which is 4
Hope that wasn't complicated
The scale of the drawing by using proportion is 3 : 5.
According to the given question.
Melissa drew a scale drawing of a city.
The width of the park in the drawing is 36 inches.
And the actual width of the park is 60 yards.
As we know that, a proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.
Therefore, the scale of the drawing by using proportion
= 36iches/ 60 yards
= 3/5
= 3 : 5
Hence, the scale of the drawing by using proportion is 3 : 5.
