To determine which options could be scaled versions of the standard United States flag with dimensions 3 feet x 5 feet, we can check if the ratios of length to width are the same.
The ratio of length to width for the standard flag is 3:5.
1. Option 6 by 15:
Ratio of length to width = 6/15 = 2/5 (not the same ratio)
NOT a scaled version.
2. Option 15 by 25:
Ratio of length to width = 15/25 = 3/5 (same ratio)
This could be a scaled version.
3. Option 2 by 4:
Ratio of length to width = 2/4 = 1/2 (not the same ratio)
NOT a scaled version.
4. Option 30 by 50:
Ratio of length to width = 30/50 = 3/5 (same ratio)
This could be a scaled version.
5. Option 1 by 2:
Ratio of length to width = 1/2 (not the same ratio)
NOT a scaled version.
So, the scaled versions of the standard United States flag are:
- 15 by 25
- 30 by 50
A standard United States Flag has the dimensions of 3 feet x 5 feet. Which of the following could be scaled versions of this flag? Select all that apply! responses 6 by 15, 15 by 25, 2 by 4,30 by 50, 1 by 2,
