Answer:

4 inch

Step-by-step explanation:

given that the ratio of the floor plan with that of the actual measurement =

                                                                 1 inch : 2 feet....................(1)

so we have to find the length of the house on the floor plan if the actual measurement is 8 feet.

using eq (1), we can say that the length on the floor plan will be half of the actual length.

therefore if the actual length of the house is 8 feet, then

                           length of the house on the floor plan = 8/2

                                                                                          = 4 inch

Answer:

We need 4 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use ratios to solve

1 in             x inches

----------  = -------------

2 ft             8 ft

Using cross products

1  * 8 = 2 x

Divide each side by 2

8 /2 = 2x/2

4 = x

We need 4 inches
