Question

the community center has a lawn for playing games. a scale drawing of the lawn is shown. the scale is 1 in. : 20 ft. what are the actual length and width of the lawn? actual length = 100 ft actual width = 60 ft length = 5 in. width = 3 in. what is the actual area of the lawn? 15 ft² 300 ft² 6,000 ft² 9,600 ft²

Explanation:

Step1: Recall area formula

The area formula for a rectangle is $A = l\times w$, where $l$ is the length and $w$ is the width.

Step2: Identify length and width

We know the actual length $l = 100$ ft and actual width $w = 60$ ft from the previous - part of the problem.

Step3: Calculate the area

Substitute the values into the formula: $A=100\times60 = 6000$ $ft^{2}$.

Answer:

6,000 $ft^{2}$
