Answer: Width of his office on the floor plan is 2.5 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Width of his office = 15 feet

Length of his office = 17.5 feet

Since we have given that Mr. Parker is using the scale.

$\frac{1}{2}\ inch=3\ feet$

We need to find the width of his office on the floor plan.

$3\ feet=\frac{1}{2}\ inch\\\\1\ feet=\frac{1}{2}\times {1}{3}=\frac{1}{6}\ inch\\\\15\ feet=\frac{15}{6}=\frac{5}{2}=2.5\ inches$

Hence, Width of his office on the floor plan is 2.5 inches.
