Question

this is a scale drawing of an actual farm. what percent of the farm is the vegetable garden? to find the percent of the farm that is the vegetable garden, start by setting up the double number line. show that the area of the entire farm is 1,000 square cm on the map.

Explanation:

Step1: Identify the area of the vegetable garden

From the double number line, the area of the vegetable garden is 100 square cm (since it's aligned with 100 on the number line for the vegetable garden's area).

Step2: Identify the total area of the farm

The total area of the farm is given as 1000 square cm.

Step3: Calculate the percentage

To find the percentage, use the formula: $Percentage = \frac{Area\ of\ Vegetable\ Garden}{Total\ Area\ of\ Farm} \times 100\%$
Substitute the values: $\frac{100}{1000} \times 100\%$
Simplify $\frac{100}{1000} = 0.1$, then $0.1\times100\% = 10\%$

Answer:

10%
