Answer 1

Ok so 2cm on the blueprint is actually 7cm in real life
2:7=1:3.5
for every cm on the map, it is 3.5 times that in real life

so total legnths
17 times 3.5+18 times 3.5+18 times 3.5+19 times 3.5=
59.5+63+63+66.5=
252

answer is 252cm

Answer 2

The answer is 252 cm. You divide each number by two and then multiply what ever that is by 7. ( since the ratio is 2:7)
