Answer 1

I think your question is missed of key information, allow me to add in and hope it will fit the original one.  Please have a look at the attached photo.

My answer:

Scale Drawing Lengths:   .     .     / .  

Actual Court Lengths       .     .     .  

Scale Factor: inch corresponds to ( ∙ ) inches, or inches, so the scale factor is .  

Let = , represent the scale drawing lengths in inches, and represent the actual court lengths in inches. The -values must be converted from feet to inches.  

To find actual length:

= =

() = inches, or feet  

To find actual width:  

= = ( )  

= / ∙ /  

= inches, or feet  

The actual court measures feet by feet. Yes, the lot is big enough for the court Vincent planned. The court will take up the entire width of the lot.
