To determine the scale of a drawing, we typically need to compare the dimensions of an object in the drawing to its actual size. However, it seems the context or specific dimensions of the figures are not provided in your question.
If you have the measurements of the scaled drawing (in inches) and the corresponding actual measurements (in yards), the scale can be calculated by comparing the two.
Here’s how you can calculate the scale:
- Measure the dimension on the drawing (in inches).
- Measure the actual dimension of the object (in yards).
- Convert the yards to inches (1 yard = 36 inches).
- Divide the drawing measurement by the actual measurement (in inches).
For example, if a line in the drawing is 2 inches long and it represents 1 yard in reality:
1 yard = 36 inches → Scale for the drawing would be 2 inches : 36 inches, which simplifies to a scale of 1 inch : 18 inches (or 1 inch : 0.5 yards).
Please provide the measurements, and I can help you find the exact scale.
