Complete the statements about the actual perimeter and area of the college campus. Use the scale 1 inch = 15 meters for the calculations.
The perimeter of the campus is meters.
The area of the campus is square meters
To calculate the actual perimeter of the campus, we need to measure the perimeter of the map and convert it to meters using the scale of 1 inch = 15 meters.
Let's say the perimeter of the map is 6 inches.
So, the actual perimeter of the campus = 6 inches * 15 meters/inch = 90 meters.
Therefore, the perimeter of the campus is 90 meters.
To calculate the area of the campus, we need to measure the area of the map and convert it to square meters using the scale of 1 inch = 15 meters.
Let's say the area of the map is 20 square inches.
So, the actual area of the campus = 20 square inches * (15 meters/inch)^2 = 4500 square meters.
Therefore, the area of the campus is 4500 square meters.
