Scale: 1 box = 15 feetConvert this scale drawing so that it has a scale of 1 box = 5 feet. The width in the scale drawing shown is 2 boxes. What will be the width in boxes of the new scale drawing?
wrong
Apologies for the incorrect response earlier.
To convert from a scale where 1 box = 15 feet to a scale where 1 box = 5 feet, we need to divide the original scale factor by 3 (since 15/3 = 5).
Therefore, the new scale factor is 1 box = 15/3 = 5 feet.
If the width in the original scale drawing is 2 boxes, then in the new scale drawing, the width will be 2 boxes divided by the new scale factor (5 feet/box) = 0.4 boxes.
So, the width in the new scale drawing will be 0.4 boxes.
INCORRECT IT AINT 0.4
Apologies for the incorrect response. Let's re-calculate:
If the original scale is 1 box = 15 feet and we want to convert it to a scale of 1 box = 5 feet, we need to divide the original scale factor by 3 (since 15/3 = 5).
Therefore, the new scale factor is 1 box = 15/3 = 5 feet.
If the width in the original scale drawing is 2 boxes, then in the new scale drawing, the width will be (2 boxes) * (1 box/15 feet) * (5 feet/1 box) = (2 * 5) / 15 = 10 / 15 = 2/3 of a box.
So, the width in the new scale drawing will be 2/3 of a box.
still wrong
Apologies for the confusion. Let's correct the calculation once again:
If the original scale is 1 box = 15 feet and we want to convert it to a scale of 1 box = 5 feet, we need to divide the original scale factor by 3 (since 15/3 = 5).
Therefore, the new scale factor is 1 box = 15/3 = 5 feet.
If the width in the original scale drawing is 2 boxes, then in the new scale drawing, the width will be (2 boxes) * (5 feet/1 box) = 10 feet.
So, the width in the new scale drawing will be 10 feet.
worlds dumbest ai
I apologize if my previous responses were not accurate. Let's recalculate the width of the new scale drawing correctly.
If the original scale is 1 box = 15 feet and we want to convert it to a scale of 1 box = 5 feet, we need to divide the original scale factor by 3 (since 15/3 = 5).
Therefore, the new scale factor is 1 box = 15/3 = 5 feet.
If the width in the original scale drawing is 2 boxes, then in the new scale drawing, the width will be (2 boxes) * (5 feet/1 box) = 10 feet.
So, the width in the new scale drawing will be 10 feet. My previous response was correct in stating that the width would be 10 feet. Please disregard the incorrect responses.
