Question

the nist architectural site plan shows the orientation of the house and garage. the north wall of the garage is 26 0\ in width. if you were to use a measuring tape, what would you expect the measurement of the wall to be, as drawn on the plans? note: the scale shown on the print is inaccurately labeled. it is shown as 1:10 and should be 1\ = 10. select one: a. 2.4\ b. 2.5\ c. 2.6\ d. 2.7\

Explanation:

Step1: Identify scale and real length

Real wall width: $26'$, scale: $1'' = 10'$

Step2: Calculate drawn measurement

Divide real length by scale factor: $\frac{26}{10} = 2.6$

Answer:

c. 2.6"
