5/12 multiplied by 2 equals 10/24 which when divided by 2 it equals 5/12
Assume that the dimensions of the room in the plan are a (width ) by b (length),
such that a*b=30.
Since the scale is 1:100, a represents 100a, and b represents 100b.
So the actual dimensions are 100a by 100b.
The area is 100a*100b=a*b*10,000=30*10,000=300,000 (square units)
Answer: 300,000 (square units)
Divide the irregular figure into rectangles
Area of rectangle = l * w
4 * 5 = 20 in^2
5 * 12 = 60 in^2
7 * 11 = 77 in^2
Add them together
20 + 60 + 77 = 157 in^2
