Johnny measured an apartment and made a scale drawing. He used the scale 9 centimeters = 1 meter. What is the scale factor of the drawing?

Simplify your answer and write it as a ratio, using a colon.

Respuesta :

we are given

9 centimeters = 1 meter

we know that

[tex] 1m=100cm [/tex]

or

[tex] 100cm=1m [/tex]

now, we can divide both sides by 100

[tex] 1cm=\frac{1}{100} m [/tex]

for 9cm

we get

[tex] 9*1cm=9*\frac{1}{100} m [/tex]

[tex] 9cm=\frac{9}{100} m [/tex]

so, the scale factor is

[tex] =\frac{9}{100} [/tex]..............Answer
