On a scale drawing of a fence, 3.75 inches represents 12 feet. Estimate the actual length of a second fence that is 2.8 in the drawing.

In order to find the scale they are using first you must divide 12 by 3.75.

But since we get to estimate, the 3.75 will be made into a 4 because it's the whole number closest to 3.75.

12/4=3

Take your 3 inch scale and multiply it by 3 (we are using 3 instead of 2.8 because it's a whole number) to get the real life fence size.

3x3=9

The fence is about 9 feet.
