Step-by-step explanation:

Note: It is not given that, 1 cm represents 2m

The bench area on an actual basketball court is 9 meters long.

We need to find how long should the bench be on the scale drawing. Since 1 cm represents 2m. It means 1 m represents 0.5 cm

9 meters will represent,

$\dfrac{9}{0.5}\ cm\\\\=18\ cm$

Hence, the bench is 18 cm long.
