Question

Julie is constructing a scale model of her room. The rectangular room is 10 1/4 inches by 8 inches. If 1 inch represents 2 feet of the actual room, what is the scale factor and the actual area of the room

Answer 1

The scale factor is 20.5ft by 16ft and the area would be 328sqft

Explanation:

10 1/4= 10.25in*2ft=20.5ft = room size

8in * 2ft = 16ft= room size

20.5ft * 16ft = 328sqft= area
