a rectangular swimming pool measures 50 meters in length and 25 meters in width. 1. make a scale drawing of the swimming pool where 1 centimeter represents 5 meters.

Answer

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate length on scale - drawing

Since 1 cm represents 5 meters and the actual length is 50 meters, we divide the actual length by the scale - factor. $50\div5 = 10$ cm

Step2: Calculate width on scale - drawing

Since 1 cm represents 5 meters and the actual width is 25 meters, we divide the actual width by the scale - factor. $25\div5=5$ cm

Answer:

Draw a rectangle with length 10 cm and width 5 cm.
