Gabe made a scale drawing of a neighborhood park. The scale of the drawing was 1 millimeter : 6 meters. If the actual length of the volleyball court is 18 meters, how long is the volleyball court in the drawing?

\begin{gathered} \text{The ratio is 1/6, thus, if the actual length of the voleyball court is 18 meters, in the drawing the lenght is} \\ 18\cdot(1)/(6)=3\text{ } \\ \\ \text{ the length in the drawing is 3mm} \end{gathered}
