Question

On a scale drawing showing the floor plan of an apartment, the
rectangular living room measures 3.5 cm by 6 cm. If
1 centimeter represents 1.5 meters, what is the area of the
floor of the actual living room, in square meters? Express your
answer as a decimal to the nearest hundredth.

Answer 1

3.5 * 1.5 = 5.25 m

6 * 1.5 = 9 m

5.25 * 9 = 47.25 m^2

Answer 2

I'm confused

Answer 3

convert 3.5 and 6 to the actual living room by multiplying 6.

Then you multiply both of them to get the area

Answer 4

Ok
