Answer:

The bridge is 80 feet long

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use the ratio method to solve the question

∵ The engineer used the scale 3 inch = 40 feet

∴ The scale drawing is ⇒ 3 inche :  40 feet

∵ The drawing length of the bridge is 6 inches

→ By using the ratio method

→  inch :  feet

→  3      :  40

→  6      :  x

→ By using cross multiplication

∵ 3 × x = 6 × 40

∴ 3x = 240

→ Divide both sides by 3

∴ x = 80

∵ x represents the actual length of the bridge

∴ The bridge is 80 feet long
