The empire state building in new york city is about 1450 feet high including the antenna at the top and 400 feet wide. andre wants to make a scale drawing of the front view of the empire state building on an 8 1/2 inch by 11 inch piece of paper. select a scale that you think is the most appropriate for the scale drawing. explain your reasoning.

The scale drawing is 1 centimeter to 50 meters  ⇒ answer E

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to solve the problem

- The height of the empire state building is about 1450 feet long and

  400 feet wide

- Andre wants to make a scale drawing of the front view of it on an

 8 1/2 inches by 11 inches piece of paper

- We need to select one of these scales that we think is the most

 appropriate for the scale drawing

A. 1 inch to 1 foot

B. 1 inch to 100 feet

C. 1 inch to 1 mile

D. 1 centimeter to 1 meter

E. 1 centimeter to 50 meters

F. 1 centimeter to 1 kilometer

- For scale A , B , and D the scaled image will not fit the page

- For scale C and F the drawing will be very small because 1 mile

 is 5280 feet and 1 kilometer is 3280.84 feet

- E is most appropriate because 1 meter is 3.28084 feet, then the

 height of the empire state is 442 m dividing by 50 m gives about

 8.8 cm and the height of the paper is 11 inches which is about 28 cm

 and the width of the empire state is about 122 m dividing by 50 m

 gives about 2.5 cm and the width of the paper is 8 1/2 inches which

 is about 22 cm then the drawing will be appropriate for drawing

∴ The scale drawing is 1 centimeter to 50 meters
