Answer:

Scale 1 35 ft by 25 ft and Scale 2 56 ft by 40 ft

Explanation:

step 1

Find the actual dimensions of a patio with the scale 1

The scale 1 is equal to

1 cm/5 ft

Length=7 cm=7*5=35 ft

Width=5 cm=5*5=25 ft

therefore

The dimensions are 35 ft by 25 ft

step 2

Find the actual dimensions of a patio with the scale 2

The scale 2 is equal to

1 cm/8 ft

Length=7 cm=7*8=56 ft

Width=5 cm=5*8=40 ft

therefore

The dimensions are 56 ft by 40 ft
