Answer:

Scale used for drawing is 1 cm = 1.75 m

Step-by-step explanation:

An architect makes a scale drawing of a house.

Actual width of porch  = 7 meters

Width of porch on drawing = 4 cm

So, Actual width = Drawing width

So, 4 cm = 7 m

[tex]1 cm = \frac{7}{4} m[/tex]

1 cm = 1.75 m

So, Scale: 1 cm = 1.75 m

So, Option B is correct

B)1 cm = 1.75 m

Hence scale used for drawing is 1 cm = 1.75 m
