Wilson drew a scale drawing of a community college. He used the scale 1 centimeter = 9 meters. In the drawing a building at the college is 18 centimeters long. What is the length of the actual building?

Respuesta :

18 x 9= 162

162 meters.
1 cm / 9 meters = 18 cm / x meters.

Cross product multiplication.
1(x) = 9(18)
Thus, x = 162 meters.
