Question

In blueprints an architects firm drew everything 1/24 of the actual size the windows will actually measure 4feet by 6 feet and the doors measure 12 feet by 8 feet what are the dimensions of the windows and doors

Answer 1

To apply a scale to a measure, you have to follow this rule:

Real measure x Scale = Scaled measure

So the drawings will have:

4 x 1/24 = 0'167 feet
6 x 1/24 = 0'25 feet
Windows: 0'167 by 0'25 feet

12 x 1/24 = 0'50 feet
8 x 1/24 = 0'33 feet
Doors: 0'33 by 0'50 feet

Answer 2

Window size in the image

length = 1/6 feet

width = 1/4 feet

Door size in the picture

length = 1/2 feet

width = 1/3 feet

Further explanation

Scale images are images that represent the real situation. The picture made is given a certain comparison so that it describes the real situation

This particular comparison is called scale

Examples of this scale drawing include maps and floor plans

On a map usually a scale is included

So the scale is a comparison between the distance on the map with the actual distance

an architects uses a scale of 1:24 in the picture

actual size of the windows = 4 x 6 feet

actual size of the doors: 12 x 8 feet

then:

• 1. The window size in the image is:

length = scale x actual size

length = 1/24 x 4

length = 1/6

width = 1/24 x 6

width = 1/4

• 2. The size of the door in the picture is:

length = scale x actual size

length = 1/24 x 12

length = 1/2

width = 1/24 x 8

width = 1/3
