To solve this problem, you can use the proportion:

44 millimeters / 8 meters = 33 millimeters / x meters

Cross-multiplying, we get:

44 millimeters * x meters = 8 meters * 33 millimeters

Solving for x, we find that:

x = (8 meters * 33 millimeters) / 44 millimeters

= (8 * 33) / 44

= 264 / 44

= 6 meters

So the actual length of the living room is 6 meters.
