Given:

Kamal drew a scale drawing of a theater.

He used the scale 6 inches = 10 feet.

The scale factor will take the form:

[tex]inches\colon feet=x\colon y[/tex]

Where (x) is the number of inches that corresponding to the number of feet (y)

So, x = 6, y = 10

So, the scale factor =

[tex]inches\colon feet=6\colon10[/tex]

Simplifying the ratio, so the answer will be:

[tex]inches\colon feet=3\colon5[/tex]
