Zahra is looking at a map of a park that has a scale of `3` in. to `200` ft. On the map, each side of the park is `6` inches long. Zahra wants to run a mile (`5280` feet). Approximately how many times would she need to run around the park in order to reach her goal?​

Respuesta :

Zahra would run 3.3 times to complete her goal

The map is a scale drawing of the park

A scale drawing is a reduced image of an original diagram. The scale drawing is reduced by constant dimensions

The map is scaled by 3 in : 200 ft

This means that 1 in represents [tex]\frac{200}{3}[/tex] feet

The length of the side of the park = 6 x [tex]\frac{200}{3}[/tex] = 400 ft

Total perimeter of the park = 4 x 400 = 1600 ft

I mile = 5280 feet

Number of times she would go round the park = 5280 / 1600 = 3.3 times
