A house plan is drawn to scale of 1cm to 2m what is the length of a window 2.5cm long on the plan
2.5 cm ( 2 m/1 cm) = 5 m
That is one long window !
I know this is several years late but thanks for the answer! It helped a lot.
Thanks this really helped
just to say germax545 was here

To find the actual length of the window, we need to convert the scale from centimeters to meters.
The scale given is 1cm to 2m, which means that 1 centimeter on the plan represents 2 meters in real life.
Given that the length of the window on the plan is 2.5cm, we can set up the following proportion:
1cm : 2m = 2.5cm : x-m
To solve for x (the actual length of the window), we cross-multiply and solve for x:
1cm * x-m = 2m * 2.5cm
x-m = 5m
Therefore, the actual length of the window is 5 meters.
