You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Given: Width of garage (in diagram)= 5 cm
Width of garage (actual) = 4 cm
Then you have a fraction to multiply the other
sizes in the diagram namely: 4/5
Diagram width = 5cm x 4/5 = 4cm
Diagram length = 10cm x 4/5 = 8cms
Diagram height = 6cm x 4/5 = 4.8cms
