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 .


(0.75)/(6) = (2)/(x) Solve by cross multiplying

0.75x = 12

x = 16


(0.75)/(9) = (2)/(x) 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
