In the design, the width of the gate appears to be 2.5 inches and the height appears to be 3 inches.
To find the real dimensions of the gate, we need to convert the scaled dimensions to real dimensions using the scale 1 inch = 3 feet.
Therefore, the real width of the gate is 2.5 inches * 3 feet/inch = 7.5 feet.
And the real height of the gate is 3 inches * 3 feet/inch = 9 feet.
So, the real dimensions of Anton's gate design are 7.5 feet by 9 feet.
Anton uses image-editing software to create a design for a gate. The figure shows the scaled design Anton made.
Using the scale 1 inch = 3 feet, find the real dimensions of the gate.
