Answer:

a. 36.25 ft

b. 45 ft

Explanation:

GIVE YOUR ANSWER IN FEET !!! as the problem statement says.

not in inches. when you use the scale factor with inches, you get inches as result. then you need to convert them to feet.

how many inches in 1 ft ?

12 !

so, you need to divide your results by 12 to get the feet.
