Question

HELP ME ASAP!!! On a scale used on a map, 3/4 inch represents 8 feet. On the map, what is the length of a room with an actual length of 24 feet?
A
4 in.

B$1 \frac{3}{4}$

C
$4 \ \frac{1}{2}$

D
$2 \ \frac{1}{4}$
​

Answer 1

Answer: D - 2 1/4”

Step-by-step explanation:

8 feet goes into 24 feet 3 times

Eg. 24/8 = 3

If 3/4” = 8 feet, then 3 x 3/4” = 24 feet

3 x 3/4” = 2 1/4”

Answer 2

Answer:

D. 2 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

3/4 inch = 8 feet

24 divided by 8 = 3

(meaning you would multiply eight three times in order to get to 24)

So....

3/4 x 3 = 2 1/4

Answer: 2 1/4

Hope this helps :)
