Anton uses image-editing software to create a design for a gate. The figure shows the scaled design Anton made.
4in, 6in
Using the scale 1 inch = 3 feet, find the real dimensions of the gate
To find the real dimensions of the gate, we need to convert the scaled dimensions in inches to real dimensions in feet using the given scale.
Scaled dimensions:
Width: 4 inches
Height: 6 inches
Scale: 1 inch = 3 feet
Real dimensions:
Width = 4 inches * 3 feet/inch = 12 feet
Height = 6 inches * 3 feet/inch = 18 feet
Therefore, the real dimensions of the gate are 12 feet in width and 18 feet in height.
