Answer: 18 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Scale is 1inch:9 feet

1 feet= 12 inch

The dividing board is 2 inches long

Suppose the actual length of the diving board is x

$\therefore \dfrac{1}{9\times 12}=\dfrac{2}{x}\\\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{9\times 12\times 2}{1}\\\\\Rightarrow x=216\ inch\ \text{or}\ 18\ ft$
