Answer:

On edmentum it's 360

Step-by-step explanation:

because you take 20 times 18 then that equals 360 but if you proceed, yes it's 1080 because 360 times 3 equals 1080 square centimeters.

The area of the scale drawing would be 1080 square centimeters or (1080 cm^2). I got this answer through first finding the area of the classroom in feet (which is A= lw = [18][20] = 360 ft^2) and then I proceeded to converting it to centimeters via given scale factor (3 cm = 1 foot) and had the answer of 1080 centimeters squared.
