Well, it depends on the sheet of paper. Considering that the circumference of the Earth is approximately 24,000 miles at the equator and a sheet of letter-sized paper in the USA is 8 1/2 by 11 inches, then if the Earth is represented in landscape mode and fits the page the scale is 11" to 24,000 miles or 24,000 miles X 5,280 feet/mile X 12 inches/foot X 12 inches/11 inches = 1,658,880,000. So the scale is very loosely about one and half billion to one.

What is the difference between a Drawing and a Sheet?

A sheet is just a simple piece of paper you can draw on while a drawing is a picture that someone has drawn and is on paper.


Myra draws and cuts out 8 planets for a class project she pastes each planet on a separate sheet of paper how many sheets of paper did Myra use?

From the data given in the question the only certainty is that at least 8 sheets of paper have been used - the 8 sheets onto which the cut-outs have been pasted. There is no statement in the question as to on what the planets were drawn before they were cut out. For example the planets could have all been drawn on a single piece of cardboard before being cut out and then pasted to a sheet of paper: each planet having a separate sheet of paper so that they could be attached to the wall in order from their sun with information regarding distance from their sun, the length of their day (in earth hours), the length of their year (in earth days/years), etc. Or perhaps they were drawn on a single sheet of paper, making the total 9 sheets; Or perhaps they were drawn on more sheets of paper - two or three smaller planets on a single sheet - adding two or more sheets of paper; Or perhaps a single sheet of paper is used per planet for the drawing, adding an extra 8 sheets. Therefore Myra used between 8 and 16 inclusive sheers of paper.

Why are scale diagrams useful and what is one limitation of scale diagrams?

A scale diagram is useful because it alows you to draw very big things in a small sheet of paper, or a blueprint of a house in a sheet of paper unde three feet, no the problem with them is that the scaling, specially if you have to draw a whole block in a letter size sheet of paper makes you lose precision (for example) the width of the line of a pencil could be too wide and cause errors.
