3 to a scale factor of 1 box = 12 inches. The
es in the new drawing?
In the original drawing, the length was represented by 10 boxes. Since the scale factor is 1 box = 6 inches, the original length would be 10 boxes x 6 inches/box = 60 inches.
To convert to a new scale factor of 1 box = 12 inches, we need to find how many boxes would represent a length of 60 inches. Since 1 box = 12 inches in the new scale, the number of boxes would be 60 inches / 12 inches/box = 5 boxes.
Therefore, the length in the new drawing would be represented by 5 boxes.
