Question

a soccer field is 20 meters in width and 40 meters in length with an area of 800 square meters. hector made a scale - drawing of the soccer field that has a scale of 1 centimeter = 4 meters. the area of the scale - drawing is square centimeters.

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate scale - width

Given scale is 1 cm = 4 m, and actual width is 20 m. So, scale - width $=\frac{20}{4}=5$ cm.

Step2: Calculate scale - length

Given actual length is 40 m. So, scale - length $=\frac{40}{4}=10$ cm.

Step3: Calculate area of scale - drawing

Area of a rectangle is length $\times$ width. So, area of scale - drawing $=5\times10 = 50$ square centimeters.

Answer:

50
