Answer:
<h2>
64 cm²</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
given:
the scale from a square park to a drawing of the park is 5 m to 1 cm
the actual park has an area of 1,600 m²
find:
what is the area of the drawing of the park
solution:
drawing scale is 5m : 1cm
<u>1,600 m² </u> = <u> 5² m² </u>
x 1² cm²
cross multiply:
5² m² x = 1600 m² (1 cm²)
x =<u> 1600 m² </u>
5² m²
x = 64 cm²
therefore, the area of a square park in the drawing is 64 cm²
