Answer: 30 meters.

Explanation:

Since the scale used by Bruce in the drawing that she made is:

1 milimeter = 10 meters

If the restaurant kitchen is 3 milimeters long in the drawing, the length of the actual kitchen will then be:

1/3 = 10/x

Cross multiply

1 × x = 3 × 10

x = 30

Therefore, the actual length is 30 meters.
