    Tanya's room was a mess. She had all sorts of books and toys strewn about, and her grandpa decided it was time to do something about it. He asked Tanya to draw a diagram for him, and he would make bookcase shelves. Tanya's drawing shows that the bookcase is 5.5  inches  high. The scale says, 2 inches = 1  foot .
    ::塔尼娅的房间一团糟。 她有各种书和玩具, 她的祖父决定现在该做点什么了。 他让塔尼娅为他绘制一张图表, 他会做书架。 塔尼娅的画显示书架高5.5英寸。 比例尺上写着, 2英寸等于1英尺。

    Given this scale, what is the actual height of the bookcase?
    ::鉴于这个规模,书架的实际高度是多少?

    In this concept, you will learn how to use a  unit scale  to find actual dimensions.
    ::在这个概念中,你将学会如何使用单位规模来找到实际的维度。

    Using a Unit Scale to Find Actual Dimensions
    ::使用单位比例来查找实际尺寸

    ratio  compares two quantities. Ratios can be written as fractions, with a colon or with the word “to.”
    ::A 比率比较两个数量。 比率可以以分数表示, 用冒号或“ to”字表示 。

    2 3 , 2:3, and "2 to 3" are ratios.
    ::2,3,2,3,2,3 和"2,3"是比例。

    proportion  is created when two ratios are found to be  equivalent  or equal.
    ::当发现两个比率对等或相等时,就形成一个比例。

    1 2 = 3 6  is a proportion.
    ::1 2 = 3 6 是一个比例。

    unit rate  is a comparison of two measurements, one of which has a value of 1.
    ::A单位费率是两项测量的比较,其中一项测量值为1。

    55 miles per  hour 55 1 m i l e s h o u r  is a unit rate. 
    ::每小时55英里 551米 i e s h o u r 是单位费率。

    unit scale  is a ratio that compares the dimensions of an actual object to the dimensions of a scale drawing or model that represents the actual object. Neither value in a unit scale has to equal 1. 
    ::单位比例表是指将实际物体的尺寸与代表实际物体的尺度图示或模型的尺寸进行比较的比率。单位比例表中的数值不一定等于1。

    The unit scale on a map may read 1" = 100 feet.
    ::地图上的单位比例尺可读 1" = 100英尺。

      The ratio would be written    1 100 i n c h f e e t  .
    ::比率为1 100 i n c h f e e t。

    To represent a line 500 feet long, the unit scale would be used to draw a line 5 inches long.
    ::为代表500英尺长的线,单位比例表将用于绘制5英寸长的线。

    A line 8 inches long would represent an actual line of 800 feet.
    ::8英寸长的一条线等于800英尺的实际线。

    Unit scales and proportions can be used to calculate actual distances from maps, drawings, or models.
    ::单位比例和比例可用来计算与地图、图纸或模型的实际距离。

    Actual distances can be represented on maps, drawings, or models by using unit scales.
    ::地图、图纸或模型可使用单位比例表代表实际距离。

    Example 1
    ::例1

    Earlier, you were given a problem about Tanya and her messy room.
    ::早些时候,你被问及 坦尼娅和她乱成一团的房间

    She made a scale drawing so her grandpa could build shelves. Tanya's drawing shows that the bookcase is  5.5  inches high. The scale says, 2 inches = 1 foot. Give the actual height of the shelf.
    ::塔尼娅的绘画显示书架高5.5英寸。 书架的高度是2英寸=1英尺。 给架子的实际高度。

    First, write the unit scale as a ratio.
    ::首先,将单位比例表写成比例。

    i n c h e s f e e t = 2 1

    Next, keeping the units consistent, write a ratio that compares the scale distance to the actual distance. 
    ::接下来,保持单位的一致性, 写一个比例比 来比较比幅距离与实际距离。

    5.5 h
     Then, set the ratios equal to one another to form a proportion. 

    2 1 = 5.5 h
     Next, cross multiply

    2 h = 5.5 h = 2.75   f e e t

    The answer is that the actual height of the book shelf is 2.75 feet.
    ::答案是书架的实际高度是2.75英尺

    Example 2
    ::例2

    Hector made this scale model of the Statue of Liberty. The scale height of his model, from the base to the torch, is 4.65  . Find the actual height of the Statue of Liberty if the scale is 1 cm = 10 m.
    ::Hector制作了自由女神像的这个比例模型。他的模型,从基底到火炬的高度是4.65。如果比例为1厘米=10米,请查找自由女神像的实际高度。

    First, write the unit scale as a ratio.
    ::首先,将单位比例表写成比例。

    c e n t i m e t e r s m e t e r s = 1 10

    Next, keeping the units consistent, write a ratio that compares the scale height to the actual height.

    ::其次,保持单位的一致性,写出比例尺高度与实际高度之间的比值。

    4.65 h = c e n t i m e t e r s m e t e r s

    Then, set the ratios equal to one another to form a proportion. 
    ::然后,设定一个比例。

    1 10 = 4.65 h

    Next, cross multiply.
