Answer:
9.5 feets
Step-by-step explanation:
Length of drawing = 8 4/9 inches
Scale : 1/3 inch in drawing = 3/8 actual length
Length of drawing / drawing scale
8 4/9 = 76/9 inches
Number of 1/3 inches in total length of drawing :
76/9 ÷ 1/3
76/9 * 3 / 1
(76*3) /(9*1) = 228 /9 = 9 3/9 = 9 1/3
9 1/3 * 3/8 foot
(228 / 9) * (3 /8)
(228/3) * (1/ 8)
228 / 24
= 9.5 feet
We use it to substitute an unknown number. We have a variable for a number we don’t know and as we solve the problem we can find the answer for the variable or unknown number.
