A scale drawing of a car is presented in the following three scales. Order the scale drawings from smallest to largest. (There are about 1.1 yards in a meter, and 2.54 cm in an inch.)
a. 1 in to 1 ft
b. 1 in to 1 m
c. 1 in to 1 yd

Which scales are equivalent to 1 inch to 1 foot? Select all that apply.
A model airplane is built at a scale of 1 to 72.
If the model plane is 8 inches long, how many feet long is the actual airplane?
Quadrilateral A has side lengths 3, 6, 6, and 9. Quadrilateral B is a scaled copy of A with a shortest side length equal to 2. Jada says, “Since the side lengths go down by 1 in this scaling, the perimeter goes down by 4 in total.”
Do you agree with Jada?
Polygon B is a scaled copy of Polygon A using a scale factor of 5. Polygon A’s area is what fraction of Polygon B’s area?
Figures R, S, and T are all scaled copies of one another. Figure S is a scaled copy of R using a scale factor of 3. Figure T is a scaled copy of S using a scale factor of 2. Find the scale factors for each of the following:
| Draggable item | arrow_right_alt | Corresponding Item |
|---|---|---|
| arrow_right_alt | From T to S | |
6 | arrow_right_alt | From S to R |
| arrow_right_alt | From R to T | |
| arrow_right_alt | From T to R |
