Answer: 252 ft²

Explanation:

The drawing's dimensions are given to be 7 cm in length, and 4 cm in width. Those values are multiplied by 3 to get the scaled drawing. This gives us 21 feet and 12 feet. When you multiply 21 feet by 12 feet, you get 252 ft². DO NOT FORGET to put the ² in the final answer.

Answer:

7cm=7×3ft=21ft

4cm=4×3ft=12ft

here

length=21ft

breadth=12ft

now

area= l×b

=21ft×12ft

=252ft^2
