The scale of the new drawing is 1 box = 2 inches, and the width of the scale drawing is 3 boxes.
To find the width in boxes of the new drawing, we need to divide the scale drawing width by the scale change factor:
3 boxes ÷ 2 inches = 1.5 boxes
Therefore, the width in boxes of the new drawing will be 1.5.
Ana Maria needs to convert this scale drawing from a scale of 1 box = 4 inches to a scale of 1 box = 2 inches. The width in the scale drawing shown is 3 boxes. What will be the width in boxes of the new drawing?
