If the scale I make for the parking lot is 10 inches long, it should be 7.5 inches wide.

What is a scale?

Scale is a term to refer to a drawing and design method in which an object or space and its actual measurements are taken as a reference and subsequently reduced or increased while maintaining the proportions between their measurements.

How to calculate the length of the width of the parking lot to scale?

To calculate the width of the parking lot to scale, it is necessary to perform the following mathematical operation.

We need to figure out how much 100 yards is on the inch scale model. So if 400 yards is 10 inches we must divide this value by 4 as shown below:

  • 10 ÷ 4 = 2.5

Based on the above, 100 yards equals 2.5 inches on this model. So if your width is 300 yards, the length in inches would be 7.5 inches.

  • 2.5 × 4 = 7.5
