Question

weavers are making a carpet from a scale drawing. The carpet will be 10 ft by 14 ft. Every 5 in. on the drawing represents 7 ft of carpet. What are the length and width of the scale drawing?

Answer 1

the answer is 9.2 in by 10 in

Answer 2

The length and the width of the scale drawing are 7.14 inches by 10 inches.

Since every 5 inches on the drawing represents 7 ft of carpet, then the width of the drawing will be:

= 10 × 5/7 = 50/7 = 7.14 inches

The length of the drawing will be:

= 14 × 5/7

= 10 inches.

Therefore, the length and the width of the scale drawing are 7.14 inches by 10 inches.
