Convert this scale drawing of a bureau drawer so that it has a scale of 1 box = 6 inches. The length in

the scale drawing shown is 8 boxes. What will be the length in boxes of the new scale drawing?

1 answer

If the scale of the original drawing is 1 box = 2 inches, and we want to convert it to a scale of 1 box = 6 inches, we can calculate the conversion factor.

The conversion factor is the ratio of the new scale to the original scale, or (6 inches / 2 inches) = 3.

To find the length in boxes of the new scale drawing, we multiply the original length in boxes by the conversion factor.

Original length in boxes = 8 boxes
Length in boxes of the new scale drawing = 8 boxes * 3 = 24 boxes

Therefore, the length in boxes of the new scale drawing will be 24 boxes.
