Which scale would produce the largest scale drawing of an object when compared to the actual object?

A

1 foot : 12 yards

B

1 centimeter : 1 meter

C

1 inch : 5 feet

D

1 inch : 30 inches

The scale would produce the largest scale drawing of an object when compared to the actual object is:

B. 1 centimeter : 1 meter

The scale represented would be:

1: 100

Step-by-step explanation:

To identify the scale you must know the proportionality in each of the cases, that is, the conversion from one unit to another, as presented below:

1. A. 1 foot: 12 yards

12 yards = 36 feet

Scale represented:

1:36

2. B. 1 centimeter: 1 meter

1 meter = 100 centimeters

Scale represented:

1: 100

3. C. 1 inch: 5 feet

1 foot = 12 inches

Scale represented:

1:60

4. D. 1 inch: 30 inches

Scale represented:

1:30

As you can see, the highest scale corresponds to the units of centimeters and meters since the conversion from meters to centimeters is the highest of the options provided.

The answer is b. This is because it is 100 cm that makes a meter not 1 cm
