Answer 1

Answer:  18

==========================================================

Explanation:

2 cm on paper (or on screen) represents 3 meters in real life.

The backyard is 2 cm horizontally across on the screen, so it's 3 meters across in real life. This is the shorter dimension.

The longer dimension is 6 meters. We can think of it like this

2 cm : 3 meters

2*2 cm : 2*3 meters .... multiply both sides by 2

4 cm : 6 meters

The real backyard is 6 meters by 3 meters to give an area of 6*3 = 18 square meters.
