Scale: 1 box = 4 centimeters
Reduce the scale drawing so that it has a scale of 1 box = 2 centimeters. Which shows the correct new scale drawing?
To reduce the scale drawing from a scale where 1 box equals 4 centimeters to a scale where 1 box equals 2 centimeters, you essentially need to halve the size of the drawing. This means that every dimension in the new scale drawing will be half the size of the original.
For instance, if the original drawing had a length represented by 5 boxes, at the original scale of 1 box = 4 centimeters, the actual length would be 5 boxes * 4 cm/box = 20 centimeters. In the new scale, the same length would need to be represented by a number of boxes that equal 20 centimeters when 1 box = 2 centimeters. So that would be 20 cm / (2 cm/box) = 10 boxes.
For each dimension:
- Measure the number of boxes along each dimension in the original scale drawing.
- Divide that number by two to find the number of boxes in the new scale drawing.
However, without the original drawing or specific dimensions, I cannot provide a visual representation. If you have a specific example with measurements or the number of boxes in the original drawing, I can provide a more detailed answer on how to adjust the scale.
