A scale drawing of Jack’s living room is shown below with equals 4 cm length equals 6 cm if each 2 cm on the scale drawn equals 10 feet what are the actual dimensions of the room?
To find the actual dimensions of the room, we first need to determine the scale factor between the drawing and the actual room.
In the scale drawing, 4 cm represents 6 cm. Therefore, the scale factor is 6/4 = 1.5.
Since each 2 cm on the drawing represents 10 feet in real life, the actual dimensions of the room can be calculated as follows:
Length: 2 cm x scale factor x 10 feet = 2 cm x 1.5 x 10 feet = 30 feet
Width: 2 cm x scale factor x 10 feet = 2 cm x 1.5 x 10 feet = 30 feet
Therefore, the actual dimensions of Jack's living room are 30 feet by 30 feet.
