Answer 2

The painting is 65in high by 105in wide.

We have to use a 1in=5in scale to make a scale drawing poster of a painting to sell at the gift shop

The dimensions of the poster will be as follows:

Height of the poster = 65/5 = 13 in

Width of the poster = 105/5 = 21 in

Therefore, the dimensions of your poster be 13in high and 21in width

Hope this helps ..!!
