Answer:

the answer is c

Step-by-step explanation:

The length and width of the scale drawing after reconsideration of the scale factor as 1/9 will be 5 and 4 inches respectively so option (C) will be correct.

What are the ratio and proportion?

The ratio is the division of the two numbers.

For example, a/b, where a will be the numerator and b, will be the denominator.

Proportion is the relation of a variable with another. It could be direct or inverse.

Given that

At scale ratio; 1/3

Length = 15 inches , width = 12 inches

Original dimension will be = dimension/ scale ratio

 

so,

Original length = 15(3) = 45 inches

Original width= 12(3) = 36 inches

At scale ratio; 1/9

Length = 45/9 = 5 inches

Width = 36/9 = 4 inches

Hence the correct answer to this question will be 5 inches long and 4 inches wide.
