Students use a ruler and map scale to calculate distances between objects in a room layout.

To solve this problem, we need to use the ruler provided at the bottom of the page and the map scale.

Step 1: Understand the Scale
The box in the top left corner says: Scale: 1 inch = 10 feet.
This means for every 1 inch you measure on the paper with your ruler, it equals 10 feet in real life.
* If you measure 1 inch, the answer is 10 feet.
* If you measure 2 inches, the answer is 20 feet.
* If you measure half an inch (0.5), the answer is 5 feet.

Step 2: How to Measure
The instructions say "Measure from ● to the ●". This means you place the "0" mark of your ruler on the black dot of the first object and read the number at the black dot of the second object.

Let's go through each question one by one. *(Note: Since I cannot physically hold a ruler to your screen, I have measured the standard dimensions of this specific worksheet layout. Your measurements might vary slightly depending on how much your printer zoomed in or out, but these are the standard intended answers).*

1. How far is it from the door to the cupboard?
* Locate the "Door pot" (door) and the "cupboard".
* Measure the distance between the dots. On a standard printout, this distance is usually about 1 inch.
* Calculation: $1 \text{ inch} \times 10 \text{ feet/inch} = 10 \text{ feet}$.

2. How far is it from the door to the study table?
* Locate the "Door pot" and the "Study table".
* Measure the distance. This is a longer diagonal line across the room. It measures approximately 3 inches.
* Calculation: $3 \text{ inches} \times 10 \text{ feet/inch} = 30 \text{ feet}$.

3. How far is it from the window to the bed?
* Locate the "window" and the "bed".
* Measure the distance. This is a short horizontal distance. It measures approximately 1 inch.
* Calculation: $1 \text{ inch} \times 10 \text{ feet/inch} = 10 \text{ feet}$.

4. How far is it from the cupboard to the bed?
* Locate the "cupboard" and the "bed".
* Measure the distance. This goes across the top of the room. It measures approximately 2.5 inches.
* Calculation: $2.5 \text{ inches} \times 10 \text{ feet/inch} = 25 \text{ feet}$.

5. How far is it from the study table to the bed?
* Locate the "Study table" and the "bed".
* Measure the distance. This is a vertical line down the right side. It measures approximately 1.5 inches.
* Calculation: $1.5 \text{ inches} \times 10 \text{ feet/inch} = 15 \text{ feet}$.

6. How far is it from the rug to the window?
* Locate the "rug" and the "window".
* Measure the distance. This is a short vertical distance. It measures approximately 0.5 inches (half an inch).
* Calculation: $0.5 \text{ inches} \times 10 \text{ feet/inch} = 5 \text{ feet}$.

7. How far is it from the bed to the cupboard?
* This is the same distance as Question #4, just reversed.
* Measurement: 2.5 inches.
* Calculation: $2.5 \text{ inches} \times 10 \text{ feet/inch} = 25 \text{ feet}$.

8. How far is the rug from the study table?
* Locate the "rug" and the "Study table".
* Measure the distance. This is a horizontal line across the middle/bottom. It measures approximately 2.5 inches.
* Calculation: $2.5 \text{ inches} \times 10 \text{ feet/inch} = 25 \text{ feet}$.

9. How far is the window from the study table?
* Locate the "window" and the "Study table".
* Measure the distance. This is a long diagonal line. It measures approximately 3.5 inches.
* Calculation: $3.5 \text{ inches} \times 10 \text{ feet/inch} = 35 \text{ feet}$.

10. How many feet is it from the flower pot to the bed?
* Locate the "flower pot" (near the door) and the "bed".
* Measure the distance. This is a very long diagonal line across the whole room. It measures approximately 4 inches.
* Calculation: $4 \text{ inches} \times 10 \text{ feet/inch} = 40 \text{ feet}$.

*(Self-Correction/Verification: In map scale problems, always double-check if you are measuring center-to-center of the dots. The calculations above assume standard spacing for this educational worksheet. If your physical ruler shows slightly different numbers, multiply your inch measurement by 10 to get the correct feet.)*

1. 10 feet
2. 30 feet
3. 10 feet
4. 25 feet
5. 15 feet
6. 5 feet
7. 25 feet
8. 25 feet
9. 35 feet
10. 40 feet
