Hey scale drawing of a bus has a scale of 1/2 inch to 5 feet if the length of the school bus is 4 1/2 inch on the scale drawing what is the actual length of the bus

22.5 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

                                                        ,,

Imagine a rectangle like this one  {___||||___|

Each stand measures 0.5 inches in the picture above.  There are 5 stands after the initial {

The actual sizes of the bus is not 0.5 inches, rather the multipliation of it with the actual size measurement that of 5 feet. In this picture of a retangle above, you have 5 stands so, 5 x 5= 25 feet. The bus in the picture above is a representation of a bus with an actual measurment of 25 feet in length.

The scale that your are given is 4 1/2 inches per 5 feet. Again, imagine a retangle (bus):

,,

{/|/|/|/|/|

(0       .5       1         1.5       2       2.5      3      3.5        4      4.5       5) inches

Each / equals 1/2 an inch    

Each | after the intial {   equals 1 inch

The questions is asking you to find the "actual length" of the bus with what you are given. You got 4.5 inches or 4 1/2 inches on a scale drawing, and each inch on the drawing measures 5 feet, all you need to do now is multiply the number of inches given, with the actual measurment representation for it. Example,

                                            4.5 x 5= 22.5 feet

TIP: Remember always to write the problem out and to write the steps you made on paper so you have something to fall on, if and when, you get an answer wrong. You can always go back and check your steps to see your error to a wrong answer.
