Answer:

D. 114ft2

Explanation:

So i checked the question online and i believe the part "a scale where 12 inch corresponds to 6 feet" should be "a scale where 1/2 inch corresponds to 6 feet"

In that case, a scale where 1/2 inch corresponds to 6 feet means

scale = 1inch to 12 feet

On the floor plan, Alexis' room is 1in by 1in

-> in reality, alexis' room is 12ft by 12ft

-> a scale where 1/2 inch corresponds to 6 feet
