An architectural drawing lists the scale as 1/4" = 1'. If a bedroom measures 6.75" by 4.5" on the drawing, how large is the bedroom?
6.75 in (1 ft/.25 in) = 27 ft
4.50 in (1 ft/.25 in) = ?????
18
To determine the actual size of the bedroom, we need to convert the measurements on the drawing to their real-world dimensions.
The scale mentioned in the architectural drawing is 1/4" = 1'. This means that every 1/4 inch on the drawing represents 1 foot in reality.
Given that the bedroom measures 6.75" by 4.5" on the drawing, we can now calculate the actual dimensions.
To convert from inches to feet, we divide the measurements on the drawing by the scale.
For the width:
6.75" / 1/4" = 6.75" * 4 = 27 feet
For the length:
4.5" / 1/4" = 4.5" * 4 = 18 feet
So, the actual size of the bedroom is 27 feet by 18 feet.
To determine the actual size of the bedroom, we need to use the scale provided on the architectural drawing. The scale is stated as 1/4" = 1', which means that every 1/4 inch on the drawing represents 1 foot in reality.
First, let's calculate the length of the bedroom in real dimensions:
6.75" x (1 foot / 1/4 inch) = 27 feet
So, the length of the bedroom in reality is 27 feet.
Next, let's calculate the width of the bedroom:
4.5" x (1 foot / 1/4 inch) = 18 feet
Therefore, the width of the bedroom in reality is 18 feet.
In conclusion, according to the given scale, the bedroom measures 27 feet in length and 18 feet in width.
