A city planner makes a scale drawing of a proposed playground the length of the actual playground is 78 ft into wick is 42 ft supposed to scale of 0.5 well you want to do it you can do it
To create a scale drawing of the playground with a scale factor of 0.5, you would need to reduce both the length and width of the actual playground by half.
Length of proposed playground: 78 ft * 0.5 = 39 ft
Width of proposed playground: 42 ft * 0.5 = 21 ft
So, the scale drawing of the proposed playground would be 39 ft by 21 ft. You can now create the scaled drawing based on these dimensions.
