Question

This is a scale drawing of a flag. The scale factor of a drawing to the actual flag is represented by the ratio 1:18. What is the area, in
square inches, of the actual flag?

Answer 1

Answer:

648 sq. in.

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of the flag is 1:18 and the question asks for the area of the flag.

To find the actual flag size, you got to multiply the width by 18.

Then you must multiply the length by 18.

A= LxW

A=36 x 18

A= 648 sq. in.

Therefore, the area of the actual flag is 648 sq. in.
