Study Notes
Soccer Field Dimensions
- The drawing of the soccer field is 1 centimeter long.
- The scale is 1 centimeter to 12 yards.
- The area of the drawing is the length multiplied by the width. This is 1 centimeter multiplied by 1 centimeter which is 1 square centimeter.
- The scale in square centimeters to square yards is 1 square centimeter to 144 square yards (12 yards multiplied by 12 yards).
- To find the actual area of the soccer field, multiply the scale in square centimeters to square yards by the drawing's area — 1 square centimeter by 144 square yards = 144 square yards.
- The ratio of the actual soccer field's area to the drawing's area is 144:1.
