<u>Answer(5):</u>
Given scale is 3 in : 8 ft
that mans 3 inch = 8 feet
or 1 inch = 8/3 feet
Given that length of the rectangle = 6.5 in
Then actual length of the room = 6.5*(8/3) = 17.3333
Given that width of the rectangle = 5 in
Then actual width of the room = 5*(8/3) = 13.3333
Now we have to find the area so we will plug the values into
Area = Length x Width = 17.3333 x 13.3333 = 231.11008889
So final answer rounded to nearest tenth is given by:
Length = 17.3 ft
Width = 13.3 ft
Area = 231.1 square ft

<u>Answer(6):</u>
Given scale is 3 in : 5 ft
that mans 3 inch = 5 feet
or 1 inch = 5/3 feet
Given that length of the rectangle = 13.2 in
Then actual length of the room = 13.2*(5/3) = 22
Given that width of the rectangle = 6 in
Then actual width of the room = 6*(5/3) = 10
Now we have to find the area so we will plug the values into
Area = Length x Width = 22 x 10 = 220
So final answer rounded to nearest tenth is given by:
Length = 22.0 ft
Width = 10.0 ft
Area = 220.0 square ft
