Answer 1

the area of the real garden is 3,456 square ft2

Explanation:

If the dimensions of the garden are 12 by 18 inches and 2 inches represent 8 feet in the real garden, you can calculate the dimensions of the real garden as follows:

Length of the real garden = 12 inches × (8 feet / 2 inches) = 48 feet.

Width of the real garden = 18 inches × (8 feet / 2 inches) = 72 feet.

Now, calculate the area of the real garden:

Area = Length × Width = 48 feet × 72 feet = 3,456 square feet.

So, the area of the real garden is 3,456 square feet.

Answer 2

3,456 ft²

Explanation:

Given:

• Scale: 2 inches in the drawing corresponds to 8 feet in the real garden.
• Length of the drawing: 18 inches
• Width of the drawing: 12 inches

To find:

• The area of the real garden

Solution:

Since

2 inches represent 8 feet.

So,

1 inches represent:

`\sf (8)/(2)=4 ft`

Therefore,

Now

Real Length = 18 inches × 4 feet/inch = 72 feet

Real Width = 12 inches × 4 feet/inch = 48 feet

Now, We can find the real area of the garden:

Real Area = Real Length × Real Width

Real Area = 72 feet × 48 feet

= 3,456 square feet

So, the real area of the garden is 3,456 ft².
