Question

Scale:1 box = 5 feet reproduce the scale drawing of Tomas front yard so that it has a scale of 1 box = 10 which shows the new scale drawing

Answer 1

To reproduce a scale drawing from a previous scale of 1 box = 5 feet to a new scale of 1 box = 10 feet, you will essentially need to adjust the dimensions of the original drawing accordingly.

Here's how to do it step by step:

1. **Determine Original Dimensions**: First, identify the dimensions from the original drawing. If each box represents 5 feet, you need to measure the distances represented in boxes.

2. **Convert to Feet**: Multiply the number of boxes by 5 to convert the dimensions into feet. For example, if a section of the yard is 3 boxes long, that would be 3 boxes x 5 feet/box = 15 feet.

3. **Apply the New Scale**: With the new scale of 1 box = 10 feet, you will now convert the total feet into boxes for the new scale. Using the previous example of 15 feet:
- Divide the total feet by the new scale (10 feet per box):
- 15 feet ÷ 10 feet/box = 1.5 boxes.

4. **Create the New Drawing**: Use the number of boxes calculated to create your new scale drawing. If 1.5 boxes was calculated for a section, draw that section as 1.5 boxes long on your new drawing.

5. **Repeat for All Dimensions**: Repeat this process for all sections of the yard until the entire drawing has been converted to the new scale.

### Example
If the original drawing had the following dimensions in boxes:
- Length: 4 boxes
- Width: 2 boxes

**Original dimensions in feet**:
- Length: 4 boxes × 5 feet/box = 20 feet
- Width: 2 boxes × 5 feet/box = 10 feet

**New dimensions in boxes** using 1 box = 10 feet:
- Length: 20 feet ÷ 10 feet/box = 2 boxes
- Width: 10 feet ÷ 10 feet/box = 1 box

Your new scale drawing would show:
- Length: 2 boxes
- Width: 1 box

This means you would redraw the front yard with those dimensions at your new scale of 1 box = 10 feet.

For a visual representation, you would sketch accordingly. If you have a specific layout or features to include, apply the same logic to each part of the yard to ensure all aspects are accurately represented.
