To find the real dimensions of the gate, we need to convert the scaled dimensions in inches to real dimensions in feet using the given scale.
Scaled dimensions:
Width: 4 inches
Height: 6 inches
Scale: 1 inch = 3 feet
Real dimensions:
Width = 4 inches * 3 feet/inch = 12 feet
Height = 6 inches * 3 feet/inch = 18 feet
Therefore, the real dimensions of the gate are 12 feet in width and 18 feet in height.
Anton uses image-editing software to create a design for a gate. The figure shows the scaled design Anton made.
