Q. Mike drew a scale drawing of an Italian restaurant. He used the scale 33 millimeters =1= 1 meter. What is the scale factor of the drawing?\newlineSimplify your answer and write it as a fraction.\newline__\_\_
  1. Identify Scale Given: Step 11: Identify the scale given in the problem.\newlineScale given: 33 millimeters = 11 meter.\newlineWe need to find the scale factor as a fraction.\newlineScale factor = (length in the drawing) / (corresponding length in reality)\newlineScale factor = (3mm)/(1m)(3 \, \text{mm}) / (1 \, \text{m})
  2. Convert to Same Units: Step 22: Convert meters to millimeters to have the same units.\newline11 meter =1000= 1000 millimeters.\newlineNow, recalculate the scale factor using the same units.\newlineScale factor =(3mm)/(1000mm)= (3 \, \text{mm}) / (1000 \, \text{mm})
