Question: A drawing of a table has a scale of 1 inch equal to 3 feet. Find the actual length of the table, if the length of the table in the scale drawing is 4 inches.


A ) 34 feet
B ) 18 feet
C ) 12 feet
D ) 4 feet

Steps to derive

1 Let l be the actual length of the table.

2 13 = 4l
 [Write the proportion using the scale.]

3 l × 1 = 4 × 3
 [Write the cross products.]

4 l = 12
 [Simplify.]

5 The actual length of the table is 12 feet.



Hence the right answer is Option C
