A=12
120% of a =80% of b
120%a = 80%b
120a/100 = 80b/100
Divide through by 100
120a = 80b
Divide through by 80
120a/80 = b
But a=12
120x 12/80 = b
18 = b
b = 18

a+b = 12 + 18 = 30

To apply a scale to a measure, you have to follow this rule:

Real measure x Scale = Scaled measure

6 x 1/24 = 0'25 feet
<span>Windows: 0'167 by 0'25 feet
</span>
<span>12 x 1/24 = 0'50 feet
</span><span>8 x 1/24 = 0'33 feet
</span>Doors: 0'33 by <span>0'50 feet</span>
