Question

A floor plan (shown above) has a scale where 12 inch corresponds to 6 feet of the actual home. What is the actual area of Alexis' room? 4 square feet 16 square feet 64 square feet 144 square feet

Answer 1

144 square feet

Explanation:

1 inch = 0.0833 feet

12 inch = 12*0.0833

12 inch = 0.9996 feet

So the scaling is

0.9996 feet:6 feet

1 feet :6 feet

So the area is 6*24= 144 ft²
