Question

n social studies class, Cole is making a scale drawing of a flag. The flag measures 24 inches high by 36 inches wide, having three vertical stripes each 12 inches wide. Which drawing shows a correct model of this flag

Answer 1

the complete question in the attached figures

we know that

1 ft---------------> 0.083333 in

so
24 inches high--------------> 24*0.083333=2 ft
36 inches wide--------------> 36*0.083333=3 ft

we will analyze each drawing

drawing a) scale 1/4 in/ 1 ft ----------> (1/4)/1=1/4
for a high of 2 ft-------------> 2*(1/4)=0.5 in
for a wide of 3 ft-------------> 3*(1/4)=0.75 in
drawing a) is not solution

drawing b) scale 1/2 in/ 1 ft ----------> (1/2)/1=1/2
for a high of 2 ft-------------> 2*(1/2)=1 in
for a wide of 3 ft-------------> 3*(1/2)=1.5 in
drawing b) is not solution

drawing c) scale 1/2 in/ 1 ft ----------> (1/2)/1=1/2
for a high of 2 ft-------------> 2*(1/2)=1 in
for a wide of 3 ft-------------> 3*(1/2)=1.5 in
drawing c) is not solution

drawing d) scale 1 in/ 1 ft ----------> (1)/1=1
for a high of 2 ft-------------> 2*(1)=2 in
for a wide of 3 ft-------------> 3*(1)=3 in
drawing d) is a solution

the answer is 
The correct model of the flag  is the drawing D
