The largest possible complete design that can be painted on a 24’ x 16’ wall is 252' by 189'
<h3>Scale drawing</h3>Scale drawing involves drawing a drawing in a different size and dimension that is proportional to the original dimension
<h3>Dimensions</h3>The dimensions of the design for the farm scene painting is given as:
The dimensions of the wall is given as:
Convert feet to inches
Divide the dimensions of the wall by the painting to get the scale ratios (k)
Also, we have:
Remove decimal (do not approximate)
By comparison;
21 is less than 24
Multiply 21 by the dimensions of the painting
So, we have:
Hence, the largest possible complete design that can be painted on a 24’ x 16’ wall is 252' by 189'
