Question

A football field is drawn to a scale of 1cm represent 5m. If the actual length of the field is 70m and the actual breadth is 50m.Find:(i) the length on the drawing (ii)the breadth on the drawing

Answer 1

Answer:

length of the drawing will be 14cm and breadth will be 10cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

if actual 5m represents 1cm in drawing then,

5m = 1cm

1m = 1/5cm

70m = (1/5)×70cm =14cm

likewise,

50m = (1/5)×50cm =10cm

thus, length in drawing is 14cm and breadth in drawing is 10cm.
