Dexter makes a scale drawing of his room. In real life, the room is 10' wide and 12'6" long. In Dexter's drawing, the room is 4"wide, what measure should the length be? explain how you figure this out.

4"/10'=z/12.5'

z=4 * (12.5/10)
(12.6 *4)/10 = 5.04
I multipled 12.6Γ—4Γ·10=5.04 so you can just say that when it asks you to explain the answer 😊.
No because if you do 42.4 divided by 10 that's 4.24 not 5.04
