To determine

To find: the actual dimensions of the swimming fool.

Answer to Problem 27STP

  $H$ $50$ meters by $25$ meters

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

Consider the rectangle length $=20\text{ cm}$

width $=10\text{ cm}$

  $\text{1 cm}=\text{2}\text{.5 m}$

Calculation:

The actual length

  $\begin{array}{l}=20\text{ cm}\times \text{2}\text{.5 m}\\ \text{=50 m}\end{array}$

The actual width

  $\begin{array}{l}=10\text{ cm}\times \text{2}\text{.5 m}\\ \text{=25 m}\end{array}$

Hence,

The dimensions of rectangle $50\text{ m}\times \text{25m}$
