It has become somewhat fashionable to have students derive the Quadratic Formula themselves; this is done by completing the square for the generic quadratic equation ax2 + bx + c = 0. While I can understand the impulse (showing students how the Formula was invented, and thereby providing a concrete example of the usefulness of abstract symbolic manipulation), the computations involved are often a bit beyond the average student at this point.

First we have to convert 60 feet to inches. since there are 12 inches in a foot we will multiply by 12
60×12=720
since the real thing is 720 inches and the scale drawing is 15 inches we can make a ratio
720:15
then simpliy
48:1
would be your answer. It means that for every 48 inches it is in real life the scale drawing will be one inch
What you could do it is. Start adding numbers and once you get close to
6 numbers See if you are close to 51 and switch around the numbers to make it equal 51 hope this helps
