To find the dimensions of the island on the blueprint, we need to first convert the actual dimensions of the island from feet to inches.
Actual dimensions of the island:
Length = 2 5/8 feet = 2.625 feet = 2.625 * 12 = 31.5 inches
Width = 1 5/16 feet = 1.3125 feet = 1.3125 * 12 = 15.75 inches
Now, we need to find the dimensions of the island on the blueprint using the scale of 1 inch = 1 1/2 feet.
Scale factor = 1 1/2 = 1.5
Dimensions of the island on the blueprint:
Length = 31.5 inches * 1.5 = 47.25 inches
Width = 15.75 inches * 1.5 = 23.625 inches
Therefore, the dimensions of the island on the blueprint are 47.25 inches by 23.625 inches.
The following blueprint of a kitchen has dimensions of 7 inches by 7 inches. The island has been highlighted in red.
The island's actual dimensions are 2 5/8 feet by 1 5/16 feet. If the scale of the blueprint is 1 inch = 1 1/2 feet, what are the dimensions of the island on the blueprint?
