The drawing of the tabletop is 8 centimeters long. If the scale of the drawing is 2 centimeters = 0.75 meters. How many meters long is the coffee table that Ernest designed?

Respuesta :

The first thing we should find in that case is the number of times the scale of 0.75 meters is repeated. For this, we make the following division:
 n = (8) / (2) = 4
 n = 4
 The number of divisions of the scale is 4.
 Then, we multiply the number of divisions by the measure of each division to find the length of the table:
 L = 0.75 * n
 L = 0.75 * (4)
 L = 3
 answer
 the coffee table that Ernest designed is 3 meters long
