Question

A floor plan of a house was drawn using a scale of 1 cm=1.5 cm. The family room in the plan is pictured as 5cm by 4cm. In square meters, what is the actual area of the family room?

Answer 1

assuming that you typed it wrong, meaning you meant 1cm=1.5 sq meters,

then the answer is 45 meters

just multiply the length and the width to get the area

so, 5cm= 7.5 m
4cm= 6 m

7.5m multiplied by 6m is 45sq m
