Question

Danna constructs a scale model of a building with a rectangular base. Her model is 3 inches in length and 2 inches in width. The scale of the model is 1 inch = 25 feet. What is the actual area, in square feet, of the base of the building?

A 1,560
B 2,480
C 3,245
D 3,750​

Answer 1

Answer: 3,750

Explanation:

1 inch = 25 feet

25ft x 3 = 75. The length = 75 feet

25ft x 2 = 50. The width = 50 feet

In order to find the are we would do length time width

So therefore, 75 x 50 = 3,750
