Ms. Stevens creates a drawing of
her kitchen. Her drawing is 7
centimeters in length and 4
centimeters in width. The scale on
the drawing is 1 centimeter = 3
feet. What is the actual area, in
square feet, of the kitchen?

Answer 1

Explanation:

This is simple: we need to only do 2 steps

1) Convert to feet

2) Get the area

1) Converting to feet is just

`(7*3, 4*3)\\` (ignore the use of this it's just to show the differnt things to multiply

Now we have a length of 21 and a width of 12 FEET.

2) To solve for the area, we need to multiply both dimensions.

`21*12=252`

So the answer is 252^2 FEET (DONT FORGET THE UNIT SQUARE FEET)
