Answer 1

length= 120 feet

width= 80 feet

Area=9,600 feet

Explanation:

each inch equals 10 feet

12×10=12

8×10=80

area=length×width

120×80=9600

Answer 2

length: 120 feet

width: 80 feet

area: 9600 feet^2

Explanation:

since the scale is 1 inch:10 feet:

to find the actual length, we would multiply 12 by 10, since 1 inch would be 10 feet and the length in the floor plan is 12 inches:

length = 12*10=120

the length of the actual room is 120 feet.

to find the actual width, we would multiply 8 by 10, for the same reasons i explained for the length:

width = 8*10=80

the width of the actual room is 80 feet.

to find the area, we would multiply length by the width:

80*120=9600 square feet.
