Answer: 384 ft^2
Explanation:
Like it said set up a proportional equation and solve for dimensions in feets.
The scale factor saids 0.75 in = 2 ft
And the dimensions are 6 in by 9 in
Now using the scale solve for how many feets will make 6 inches and how many feets will make 9 inches .
Solve by cross multiplying
0.75x = 12
x = 16
Cross multiply
0.75x = 18
x = 24
Now since we know the new dimensions are 16ft by 24ft then we will multiply them together to find the area .
16 * 24 = 384 ft^2
