<h2>Answer:</h2><h2></h2><h3>21m</h3><h2></h2><h2>Explanation:</h2><h2></h2>

The diagram and complete question is shown below. We know that the length (L) of the living scale in the drawing is:

$L=16.8cm$

We also know that the scale is:

$Scale:2cm=2.5m$

Then, by using proportion we have:

$\frac{2.5m}{2cm}=\frac{x}{16.8cm} \\ \\ \\ Isolating \ x: \\ \\ x=\frac{2.5m}{2cm}(16.8cm) \\ \\ \boxed{x=21m}$
