Answer:
Length of scale = 15 cm
Width of scale = 5 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Dimensions of the kitchen of Mai are given as:
Length of kitchen = 6 m
Width of kitchen = 2 m
Scale to be used = 1 to 40
To find:
The drawing with labeling and dimensions of the scale drawing.
Solution:
First of all, let us understand about the concept of scaling.
Scaling is a method to represent big structures on paper.
For this purpose, we decide a scaling factor and draw the big structures on paper by scaling down (making it small) by using a scaling factor.
Here, the scale factor used is 1 to 40.
i.e. 1 unit on scale is equivalent to 40 units on the actual kitchen.
40 units of kitchen = 1 unit of scale
1 unit of kitchen = units of scale
6 m of kitchen =
Length of scale = <em>15 cm</em>
40 units of kitchen = 1 unit of scale
1 unit of kitchen = units of scale
2 m of kitchen =
Width of scale = <em>5 cm</em>

Please refer to the attached image as well for representation of given scale.
