    Josh is building a scale diagram of Mount Everest. He knows that Mount Everest is 29,035 feet high. He doesn’t want his model to be too large so thinks he should use 1   i n 2000   f t . If Josh uses this scale, will his model be too big?
    ::Josh正在绘制珠穆朗玛峰比例图。 他知道珠穆朗玛峰高达29,035英尺。 他不希望他的模型太大,因此认为他在2000年应该使用1英尺。 如果Josh使用这个比例图,那么他的模型会不会太大?

    In this concept, you will learn to use unit scale when problem solving.
    ::在此概念中,您将学会在解决问题时使用单位规模。

    Unit Scale
    ::单位比例缩缩

    Sometimes in life, you have a real-life object that you want to represent in a smaller form. Think about buildings. When an architect is planning a building design, he or she may design a model of the building. This model shows the dimensions of the building in a smaller way. When you do this, you take the actual dimensions and shrink them down to build a model. When you do this, you create a unit scale for the model. When you create a unit scale, you decide on an appropriate measurement to represent an actual measurement.
    ::有时在生活中,你有一个真实的物体,你想以较小的形式代表它。想一想建筑物。当一个建筑设计师正在规划建筑设计时,他(她)可以设计一个建筑模型。这个模型以较小的方式显示建筑物的尺寸。做这个模型时,你采取实际的尺寸,将其缩放,以构建一个模型。做这个模型时,你为模型创建一个单位尺度。当创建一个单位尺度时,你将决定一个适当的计量,以代表实际的测量。

    First, let’s look at a unit scale.
    ::首先,让我们看看单位规模。

    1   inch = 3   feet
    ::1英寸=3英尺

    This is a unit scale. You have a unit represented by the one inch. Remember that when you talk about unit, you are talking about a relationship to one. You have one inch represented by three feet.
    ::这是单位比例表。 您有一个单位, 代表单位为一英寸。 记住, 当您谈论单位时, 您正在谈论与一个单位的关系。 您的单位为一英寸, 代表三英尺 。

    The one inch is the scale dimension and the three feet is the actual dimension we are measuring.
    ::一英寸是尺度尺寸,三英尺是实际的尺寸,我们正在测量。

    Now, not all objects that you will create a model of will measure exactly what the unit scale does, so you have to use a unit scale to show the relationship between scale dimensions and actual dimensions . Scale dimensions are the dimensions of the model, and actual dimensions are the real–life dimensions.
    ::现在,不是所有您要创建的模型都能够精确测量单位规模的精确度量,所以您必须使用单位规模来显示尺度大小与实际尺寸之间的关系。 规模大小是模型的维度,而实际维度是实际生命维度。

    Let’s look at an example.
    ::让我们举个例子。

    Using the unit scale above, what would be the relationship between the scale dimensions and the actual dimensions for an object 24 feet long?
    ::使用以上单位比例尺,一个物体24英尺长的尺度尺寸与实际尺寸之间的关系是什么?

    First, let’s think about your unit scale.
    ::首先,让我们想想你的单位规模。

    1   inch = 3   feet
    ::1英寸=3英尺

    Next, use the unit scale to write a proportion of the scale dimensions to the actual dimensions.
    ::其次,使用单位比例尺将比例尺维度与实际维度成比例。

    1   in 3  ft = x   in 24   ft
    Then, cross multiply.
    ::1 英寸 3 ft=x in24, 乘以乘以乘以 。

    1   in 3  ft = x   in 24   ft 3 x = 1 × 24 3 x = 24

    ::1 英寸 3 ft=x in24 ft3x= 1x243x=24

    Then, divide both sides by 3 to solve for x .
    ::然后把两边除以3 解决x

    3 x = 24 3 x 3 = 24 3 x = 8

    ::3x=243x3=243x=8

    The answer is 8.
    ::答案是8岁

    Therefore , 8   inches = 24   feet .
    ::因此,8英寸=24英尺。

    If you know the scale dimensions and the unit scale, then you can find the actual dimensions with the unit scale.
    ::如果您知道规模尺寸和单位尺度,那么您就可以找到单位尺度的实际尺寸。

    If you know the actual dimensions and the unit scale, then you can find the scale dimensions with the unit scale.
    ::如果您知道实际尺寸和单位尺度,那么您就可以用单位尺度找到尺度尺寸。

    Let’s look at an example.
    ::让我们举个例子。

    What is the scale length of the object if the unit scale is 2 inches : 4 feet and the actual dimensions of the object is 20 feet?
    ::如果单位大小为2英寸:4英尺,而物体的实际尺寸为20英尺,那么物体的尺度长度是多少?

    First, let’s think about your scale.
    ::首先,让我们想想你的规模。

    2   inches = 4   feet
    ::2英寸=4英尺

    Next, use the scale dimensions to write a proportion of the scale dimensions to the actual dimensions. 
    ::其次,使用比例尺维度将比例尺维度与实际维度成比例。

    2   in 4   ft = x   in 20   ft

    ::2 英寸 4 英尺=x in20 英尺

    Then, cross multiply.
    ::然后,交叉倍增。

    2   in 4   ft = x   in 20   ft 4 x = 2 × 20 4 x = 40

    ::2 英寸 4 英尺=x 20 英尺4x=2xxx20 ×204x=40

    Then, divide both sides by 4 to solve for x .  

    4 x = 40 4 x 4 = 40 4 x = 10
    The answer is 10.
    ::然后,将两边除以 4 来解析 x. 4x= 404x4= 404x= 10 答案是 10。

    Therefore, 10   inches = 20   feet .
    ::因此,10英寸等于20英尺

    ::实例

    Example 1
    ::例1

    Earlier, you were given a problem about  Josh’s mountainous model.
    ::更早之前, Josh的山地模型给您带来了问题。

    Josh is using scale dimensions of 1   in = 2000   ft . Mount Everest is 29,035 feet.
    ::Josh正在使用2000年1月1日的尺度尺寸。 珠穆朗玛峰是29,035英尺。

    First, let’s think about your unit scale.
    ::首先,让我们想想你的单位规模。

    1   inch = 2000   feet
    ::1英寸=2000英尺

    Next, use the unit scale to write a proportion of the scale dimensions to the actual dimensions.
    ::其次,使用单位比例尺将比例尺维度与实际维度成比例。

    1   in 2000   ft = x   in 29035   ft

    ::2000年 1 吨=x 29035 吨

    Then, cross multiply.
    ::然后,交叉倍增。

    1   in 2000   ft = x   in 29 , 035   ft 2000 x = 1 × 29 , 035 2000 x = 29 , 035

    ::在2000年, 1 ft=x in29, 035 ft2000x=1x29, 0352000x=29, 035x=29, 035

    Then, divide both sides by 2000 to solve for x .
    ::然后在2000年前把两边分开 解决x的问题

    2000 x = 29 , 035 2000 x 2000 = 29 , 035 2000 x = 14.5

    ::2000x=29,0352000x2000=29,0352000x=14.5

    The answer is 14.5.
    ::答案是14.5

    Josh’s model of Mount Everest would be 14.5 inches tall.
    ::Josh的珠穆朗玛峰模型将高达14.5英寸。

    Then, cross multiply.
    ::1 in8 ft=5 inx ftText, 乘以乘数 。

    1   in 8    ft = 5   in x   ft 1 x = 5 × 8 x = 40
    The answer is 40.
    ::1 英寸 8 ft= 5 inx ft1x= 5x8x= 40 答案是 40 。
