HELP 7TH GRADE MATH A local park is in the shape of a square. A map of the local park is made with the scale 1 inch to 200 feet.

If the park is shown as a square on the map, each side of which is one foot long, how long is each side of the square park?
If a straight path in the park is 900 feet long, how long would the path be when represented on the map?

The length of each side of the square park is 2,400 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Remember that

1 ft=12 in

The length of each side on the map is 1 ft

Convert ft to in

1 ft=1(12)=12 in

step 2

Find the length of each side of the square park

using proportion

Let

x > the actual length of each side of the square park

2400 ft, 4.5 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

If the scale is 1 inch to 200 feet, and the park is shown as 1 ft on each side, then we need to multiply 1 ft, in inches, with 200 ft to find the actual length of the park

1 ft = 12 inches

12 in. x 200 ft = 2400 ft

To find the length of the path as displayed on the map, simply divide the given length by 200 ft.

900/200 = 4.5

Therefore, the path will be displayed as 4.5 inches on the map.

12cm

the answer is d
