Does scale is one box equals 15 feet convert this girl drawing so that it has a scale of one box equals 5 feet the width and the scale drawing showing is two boxes what will the width in the boxes with the new scale drawing
To convert the girl drawing with a scale of one box equals 15 feet to a new scale where one box equals 5 feet, you need to divide the width of the original drawing by the original scale and then multiply it by the new scale.
Original scale: 1 box = 15 feet
New scale: 1 box = 5 feet
Let's assume the width of the original girl drawing is 30 feet.
Width in original scale drawing = 30 feet / 15 feet = 2 boxes
Now, to find the width in the new scale drawing with a scale of 1 box = 5 feet, you multiply the original width in boxes by the new scale.
New scale width = 2 boxes * 5 feet per box = 10 feet
Therefore, the width in the new scale drawing, with two boxes showing, would be 10 feet.
