Question

If on a scale drawing 15 feet are represented by 10 inches then a scale of 1/10 inch represents how many feet

Answer 1

A scale of $\frac{1}{10}$ inches will represent $\frac{3}{20}$ feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to scale drawing;

15 feet = 10 inches

1 inch = $\frac{15}{10}=\frac{3}{2}\ feet$

A scale of $\frac{1}{10}$ inch will represent;

Multiplying both sides by

$\frac{1}{10}*1=\frac{3}{2}*\frac{1}{10}\\\\\frac{1}{10}\ inches = \frac{3}{20}\ feet$

A scale of $\frac{1}{10}$ inches will represent $\frac{3}{20}$ feet.
