Question

The scale of a house design is 1: 250. If the room length in the drawing is 6 cm, find the actual length of the room.

Answer 1

Answer:

1500cm or 15m

Step-by-step explanation:

if ratio is 1 : 250 and length in drawing is 6 cm

1 : 250

6 : ?

1 × ? = 6 × 250

? = 1500

the actual length will be 250 times that amount

therfore length
