Question

A blueprint for a house states that a 6 inch line represents 11 feet on the actual home. If the house is to be a
total height of 20 feet, how many inches high would it be on the blueprint?

Answer 1

The house will be 10.9 inches high on the blueprint.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Scale on blue print;

6 inch = 11 feet

We will find unit rate in terms of foot.

1 foot = $\frac{6}{11}\ inches$

Therefore;

20 feet = $\frac{6}{11}*20 = \frac{120}{11}$

20 feet = 10.9 inches

The house will be 10.9 inches high on the blueprint.
