aaron made a scalw drawing of his bedroom he used the scale 1/4 inch = 1 foot the length of his bedroom in the drawing is 5 inches what is the actual length of his room ?
(1/4) / 1 = 5 / x
(1/4)x = 5
x = 5 / (1/4)
x = 5 * 4
x = 20 feet
To find the actual length of Aaron's room, you can multiply the length of the drawing by the scale factor.
Length in inches = 5 inches
Scale factor = 1/4 inch = 1 foot
Actual length = Length in inches * Scale factor
Actual length = 5 inches * (1/4 inch/1 foot)
Now, let's convert the inches to feet by multiplying by 1 foot/12 inches:
Actual length = (5/12) feet
Therefore, the actual length of Aaron's room is 5/12 feet.
To find the actual length of Aaron's room, we need to use the scale provided. The scale is given as 1/4 inch = 1 foot, which means that for every 1/4 inch on the drawing, it represents 1 foot in real life.
Given that the length of his bedroom on the drawing is 5 inches, we can set up a proportion to find the actual length:
1/4 inch on the drawing = 1 foot in real life
5 inches on the drawing = x feet in real life
We can cross-multiply to solve for x:
(1/4) * x = 5
Dividing both sides of the equation by 1/4:
x = 5 / (1/4)
x = 5 * (4/1)
x = 20
Therefore, the actual length of Aaron's room is 20 feet.
