Anna Marie needs to convert the scale drawing from a scale of 1box = 4 inches to a scale of 1 box = 2 inches. The width of the scale drawing shown is 3 boxes. What will be the width in boxes of the new drawing?

1 answer

To convert the scale from 1 box = 4 inches to 1 box = 2 inches, we need to divide the width of the scale drawing by the scale factor.

The scale factor is 4 inches divided by 2 inches, which equals 2.

So, to find the width of the new drawing in boxes, we divide the width of the scale drawing by the scale factor:

Width of new drawing = Width of scale drawing / Scale factor
Width of new drawing = 3 boxes / 2
Width of new drawing = 1.5 boxes

Therefore, the width of the new drawing is 1.5 boxes.
