The scale drawing is a rectangle. The width is 2 inches wide while the height is 4.5 inches tall. The scale is 1:30.

The actual area can be computed below

`\begin{gathered} \text{Base on the proportion} \\ \text{width}=2*30=60\text{ inches} \\ \text{height}=4.5*30=135\text{ inches} \\ 1\text{ foot =12 inches} \\ 60\text{ inches = 5 f}eet \\ 135\text{ inches=}11.25\text{ f}eet \\ \\ \text{area = 11.25}*5=\text{ }56.25\text{ }\approx56\text{f}eet^2^{} \end{gathered}`
