Scale Drawing

Last week, LS2 were making scale drawings. We had to rule 1 centimeter lines on our original image and enlarge it to 2 centimeter lines on a A3 piece of paper. The ratio of this was 1:2 since we are enlarging. We had to make sure we were copying the original image onto the enlargement square by square so it could look like the original.
