We know that
[scale factor ]=[real]/[drawing]
[real]=[drawing]*[scale factor ]
step 1
find the real values
if the base of Riley's drawing is 10 centimeters
[real]=[drawing]*[scale factor ]--------> 10*3-------> 30 cm
the base of the triangular clock face is 30 cm
the height of Riley's drawing is 15 centimeters
[real]=[drawing]*[scale factor ]--------> 15*3-------> 45 cm
the height of the triangular clock face is 30 cm
the area of the triangular clock face is-----> 45*30/2-------> 675 cm²
the answer is the option C. 675 square centimeters
The process here is finding out the smallest number's % towards the largest number.
Divide 20 by 52:
20/52 = 0.38 (estimated) | This is the % in decimal form, which is 38%.
Conclusion: 20 is 38% of 52.

Finding the Smallest Number:
What number is 25% of 60?
Multiply 60 by the decimal form of 25%.
60 * 0.25 = 15 | 15 is 25% of 60.
Finding the Percentage. (Like what we already did.)
30 is what percent of 150?
Divide 30 by 150.
30/150 = 0.2 | 30 is 20% of 150.
Finding the Largest Number.
12 is 30% of what number?
Divide 12 by the decimal form of 30%.
12/0.3 = 40 | 12 is 30% of 40.
I hope this helps, have a great rest of your day! ^ ^

Draw a diagram to illustrate the problem as shown below.
The length of baseboard needed is AB + BC + CD + DE + FE.
Note that 30 in = 30/12 ft = 2.5 ft.
Because of the door opening,
AB + EF = 12 - 2.5 = 9.5 ft
Also,
BC = DE = 10 ft
CD = 12 ft.
The amount of baseboard needed is
AB + BC + CD + DE + FE
= (AB + EF) + BC + CD + DE
= 9.5 + 10 + 12 + 10
= 41.5 ft
Answer:
41.5 feet of baseboard.
