Sometimes scale drawings are shown on graph paper. Each square on this graph paper is 1/4 inch. Use the scale drawing of the living room to answer each question. There are 1,296 in.2 in one square yard. Use a proportion to find out how many square yards of carpet it would take to cover the floor.

Answer 1

You haven't said what the scale is. what are the dimensions of the room represented by a 10x12 square grid?

If each square represents a foot, then a 3x3 block of squares represents a square yard.

Once you figure out how many inches of the room are represented by a square on the paper, then you can do some math.

Answer 2

The scale is 1/4

Answer 3

10/12=x/36
360/12=30 yds

1296 inches converted into yards is 36 yds

Answer 4

The answer is 30
