Question 5 (Worth 5 points) (05.01)A scale drawing of a bedroom is shown below. The scale is 1 : 30. A rectangle is shown. The length of the rectangle is labeled 3 inches. The width of the rectangle is labeled 4 inches. Show your work to determine the area of the room in square feet.
First, you multiply the scale factor times each side. 30(4 in) = 120 inches 30(3 in) = 90 inches After that, you convert these measurements from inches to feet. 120 inches ÷ 12 = 10 feet². The length of the room is 10 feet. 90 inches ÷ 12 = 7.5 feet². The width of the room is 7.5 feet. For the last step, you multiply these measurements together to get the area of the room in square feet. 10 feet² × 7.5 feet² = 75 feet² This means that the area of the room, in square feet, is 75 feet².
