On an architect's drawing of a house, 1 inch represents 7 feet. if the bedroom window is 5 inches long on the drawing, how long will it be in the actual house?

We can use ratios here. The real size would have to be proportional, meaning that if I increase the line on the drawing 5 times, the real size would have to increase 5 times as well.

We can obviously see, after having said that, that the real window would have to be 35ft long (because we multiplied 1 inch by 5, and if 1 inch represents 7 feet, then we also have to multiply that by 5 so it’s proportional, and 7*5=35)

We can check too — 1 in : 7 ft = 5 in : x ft

x = (7ft * 5in) / 1in — we would get the same result :)

The answer would be 484

It will cost $540i think
