Question

Luna drew a scale drawing of the high school. The parking lot, which is 54 meters wide in real life, is 102 centimeters wide in the drawing. What scale did Luna use? 17 centimeters:___meters

Answer 1

Scale drawings are used to draw shapes in a different proportional size

The scale used in the drawing is 17 centimeters : 9 meters

How to determine the scale of the drawing

From the question, we have:

• Real length = 54 meters
• Scale length = 102 centimeters

So, the scale is:

Scale =  Scale length : Real length

This gives

Scale =  102 centimeters : 54 meters

Reduce the scale

Scale =  17 centimeters : 9 meters

Hence, the scale used in the drawing is 17 centimeters : 9 meters
