this rectangle will be scaled on graph paper.the scale is 1cm =5feet what will the longer side measure and the short side ? its a rectangle with 25 feet on the left side and 50 feet on the bottom ?
1cm=5ft
so for every five feet you will use 1 cm.
so the width will be 5 cm. 25/5=5
and the length 10 cm. 50/5=10
