QuestionIn a scale drawing, a maple tree shades $12 \frac{1}{2} \mathrm{~cm}^{2}$. How many cm² equal $1 \mathrm{~m}^{2}$? (A) $\frac{3}{5}$ (B) $\frac{5}{3}$

Studdy Solution
implify the fraction to its lowest terms.
$$Ratio = \frac{5}{3} \mathrm{~cm}^{2}/\mathrm{m}^{2}$$So, in the scale drawing, $1 \mathrm{~m}^{2}$ is represented by $\frac{5}{3} \mathrm{~cm}^{2}$.
