A room is 15 feet long and 12 feet wide. A scale drawing of the room is 10 inches by 8 inches. What is the scale of inches in the drawing to inches in the actual room? Enter the correct answer in the box.

18 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The question asks for scale of inches in the drawing and the actual room, so first convert 15 ft and 12 ft into inches.

1 foot= 12in x 1ft= 12 inches

15 feet= 12in x 15ft = 180 inches

12 feet= 12in x 12ft = 144 inches

The room is 180 inches long and 144 inches wide.

To find the scale, set up a proportion to the drawing to the room.

You can see that the scale is 18 inches because to get from 180 to 10, you multiply by 18, and the same thing as 8, you would multiply 8 by 18 to get to 144.
