Answer:
[tex]\frac{5}{48}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Start by converting 8 feet to inches. Note that 1 feet = 12 inches.
We can set up a unit converter:
[tex]8ft(\frac{12in}{1ft})[/tex]
The feet cancel out leaving us with:
[tex]8*12in=96in[/tex]
The scale factor is:
[tex]\frac{drawing}{real\ life}=\frac{10in}{96in}=\frac{10}{96}=\frac{5}{48}[/tex]
