on the blueprint of the house 44 millimeters represents 8 meters. the length of the living room is 33 millimeters on the blueprint. what is the actual length of the living room?

Respuesta :

So if 44=8 and 33=x, solve for x. 
The problem would look like this : 44mm = 8m
                                                      33mm =  x
You would cross multiply giving you this : 44x = 264
Then divide 264 by 44 to isolate x, then you should get this : x = 6
6m will be your answer.

The actual length of the living room is 6 meters.

What is unit conversion?

Conversion of units is the conversion between different units of measurement for the same quantity, typically through multiplicative conversion factors.

Here the unit of lengths, millimeter is converted to meter based on the given scale

For the given situation,

In blue print the house is represented as follows,

44 millimeters =  8 meters

⇒ [tex]1 millimeter = \frac{8}{44} meters[/tex]

⇒ [tex]1 millimeter = 0.18 meters[/tex]

The length of the living room = 33 millimeters

The actual length of the living room in meters = [tex]33(0.18)[/tex]

⇒ [tex]5.94[/tex] ≈ [tex]6 meters[/tex]

Hence we can conclude that the actual length of the living room is           6 meters.
