answer for the 1st question:

1) length is 15 ft

2) width is 6ft

3) the area is 90 ft²

Explanation:

ok so we know that the plan is 2 in/6 ft

step 1-

we need to find the length of the terrace, and we know that the length of the terrace in the plan is 5 in

so by proportion- we'll need to find the length of the 'actual' terrace

2 in/ 6 ft= 5 in/ x ft

x=6*5/2

x=15 ft (we now have the length)

step 2-

now that we know the length, we need to find the width

the length of the terrace in the plan is 2 in

and by proportion- we'll find the 'actual' width of the terrace

2 in/6 ft=2 in/ x ft

x=6*2/2

x=6 ft

and now we'll find the area of the terrace (step 3)-

the formula for the area of a rectangle is a=lw or area=length*width

now we just fill the variables in with what we know-

so we know that 15 ft is the length and that 6 ft is the width-

15*6=90 ft²

**sorry about my original answer i didn't pay close enough attention**

good luck :)

i hope this helps

have a nice day !!
