A garage floor measures 150 feet by 120 feet. A scale drawing of the floor on grid paper uses a scale of 1 unit: 15 feet. What are the dimensions of the drawing?

well it's 1:15 so 150 feet would be 10 units since 150 is 15 times of 10 120/15=8 units the floor is 8 by 10 units

The dimensions of the scale drawing of the garage floor are 10 units by 8 units, based on the scale of 1 unit to 15 feet. This is calculated by dividing the actual dimensions by the scale factor. Therefore, 150 feet becomes 10 units and 120 feet becomes 8 units.
