Question

The blueprints for a home are a 1/10 scale drawing.if the actual living room is 10feet by15 feet,what is the area of the room on the blueprint?

Answer 1

I'm assuming a 1:10 scale. So then that means the 10 by 15 feet should be divided by 10. The blueprint area is 1 ft by 1.5 ft.

Explanation:

Answer 2

The area of the room on blueprint is 1.5 feet by 1 feet.

Explanation:

The blue prints for a home are a
`(1)/(10)` scale drawing.

If the actual living room is 10 feet by 15 feet.

To find the area of the room on the blueprint, we have to calculate
`(1)/(10)` of the actual size.

Actual length of the room = 15 feet

On the blueprint = 15 ×
`(1)/(10)` = 1.5 feet

Actual width of the room = 10 feet

On the blueprint = 10 ×
`(1)/(10)` = 1 feet.

The area of the room on blueprint is 1.5 feet by 1 feet.
