Zack drew a scale drawing of a house and its lot. The backyard is 15 inches wide in the drawing. The actual yard is 24 feet wide. What scale did Zack use for the drawing?

Answer:

  • 5 ÷ 96

Step-by-step explanation:

The scale is

  • 15 in ÷ 24 feet =
  • 15 in ÷ 24*12 in =
  • 15 in ÷ 288 in =
  • 5 in ÷ 96 in =
  • 5 ÷ 96

Convert 24ft to in

  • 1ft=12in
  • 24ft=24(12)=288in

Scale used

  • 15/288
  • 5/96
  • 5:96
