The scale for a drawing of a barn is 1/2 = 4 feet. If a pole in the drawing measures inches, how tall is the actual pole?

We will be solving this question using an assumed value, the important thing is to know how to go about solving problems like this.

Step-by-step explanation:

The scale is:

1/2 inches = 4 feet

This simply means that for every 1/2 inches we draw, the actual measurement is 4 feet.

Now, let us assume that the pole in the drawing measures 5 inches, its actual measurement will be calculated as follows:

1/2 inches = 4 feet

5 inches  = x feet

x is what we are solving for.

The next step is to cross multiply, this gives us the following:

1/2 * x = 4 * 5

we therefore have:

1/2x = 20

next is to divide both sides by 1/2, we have

x = 20 divided by 1/2

doing this on a calculator gives us:

x = 40

Therefore, if the pole is 5 inches in the drawing, its actual length is 40 feet

10/60

step-by-step explanation:

if you divide 10 by 60 the answer is 0.166666 while if you divide or solve the other problems it equals 0.6
