Set up a proportion.
0.5 / 4 = 2.8 / x
Cross multiply.
0.5x = 4 * 2.8
0.5x = 11.2
x = 22.4
0.5 / 4 = 2.8 / x
Cross multiply.
0.5x = 4 * 2.8
0.5x = 11.2
x = 22.4
16.8*2.8=47.04/5=9.4
How can the room be only 9.4 feet, when 1 inch = 8 feet?
I set up another porportion and cross multiplied, and i got what you told me...
8ft over 1in = x over 2.8 and I crossed multiplied to get 22.4
8ft over 1in = x over 2.8 and I crossed multiplied to get 22.4
