Answer:

3 meters

Explanation:

Given the scale drawing :

2m : 1m

Length of living room in real life = 6 m long

2 meter = 1 meter

Real life = scale drawing

If length = 6 meter long ;

using cross multiplication :

2 meter = 1 meter

6 meter = x

2x = 6

x = 6/2

x = 3 meter

Length of living room in drawing = 3 meters
