An architect draws a plan for a wheelchair ramp on the plan, the ramp is 2cm high and 24cm long what might the dimensions of the actual ramp be (use equivalent ratios)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Scale Measurement

Required

Determine the possible actual measurement

First, calculate the equivalent ratio.

To do this, we pick a scale factor.

Assume the scale factor is 15.

The actual measurement will be:

When the scale ratio is calculated, we have:

Note that both have the same equivalent ratios of 12.

So, whatever the scale ratio you use, the equivalent ratio will be the same

1/4 because there is 4 grades.
