3 divided by 8 = 0.375
0.375 x 100 = 37.5%
37.5% is closest to 38%

The actual length (L) of a rectangle is 27 centimeters. Use the scale drawing of the rectangle to find the actual width (W).

Dominik [7]

The ratio of the length to the width is $\rm \dfrac{L}{W}$ .
The ratio of the sides will be the same for the scale and actual figures.

$\rm \dfrac{2.4}{3.6}=\dfrac{27}{W}$

I took the L/W of the scale figure
and set it equal to the L/W of the actual figure.

Now we can solve for the unknown width.
Cross-multiplication gives us this,

$\rm 2.4W=3.6\cdot27$

Divide by 2.4 and simplify,

$\rm W=40.5$

Hope that helps! :)

The graph is shown below. I used GeoGebra to create the graph. The graph is restricted on the domain $0 \le x \le 2$ meaning that everything to the left of x = 0 is not drawn, and the same for everything to the right of x = 2.
