The scale ratio of a point A to another point B is the division of the length of B by the length of A. The best equation that models the situation is: [tex]10.5k= 3214[/tex]
The page dimension is:
[tex]Length = 12[/tex]
[tex]Width = 12[/tex]
The length and the width of Uche's book are equal; this means the pages of Uche's book have the shape of a square
The margin of 0.75 on either sided means the usable dimension is:
[tex]Length = 12 - 2 * 0.75 =10.5[/tex]
The dimension of India is:
[tex]Length = 3214[/tex]
[tex]Width =2933[/tex]
The longest side in India's dimension is:
[tex]Longest = 3214[/tex]
From Uche's book, the longest dimension is:
[tex]Longest = 10.5[/tex]
So, the scale equation is:
k * longest length of Uche's book = longest side of India
This gives:
[tex]k * 10.5 =3214[/tex]
[tex]10.5k =3214[/tex]
