Answer:
0.3 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
The scale is 50:1 this means if the wing had a real length of 1 cm, in the drawing it will be of 50 cm.
We want to know the real length of the wing of the drawing has a wing with a length of 15cm.
We can express the information we have as follows:
Drawn length Real Length
50cm 1cm
15cm x
Where x is the real length of the wing when the drawing has a length of 15cm.
We can solve the problem by applying rule of three, we must multiply the cross quantities and divide by the remaining amount.
[tex]x=\frac{15*1}{50}=\frac{15}{50} =0.3[/tex]
The actual length of the wing is 0.3cm.
