Question

What is the area of the real store in square inches? What is the area of the real store in square feet? What are the dimensions (length and width) of the store in feet? Is it a big store or a small one? PLEASE HELPP!!

Answer 1

The dimensions of the real store are 80 times bigger as per scale:

• 1.875 in * 80 = 150 in = 150/12 ft = 12.5 ft
• 2.25 in * 80 = 180 in = 180/12 ft = 15 ft

The area of the real store:

• 150 in * 180 in = 27000 in²
• 12.5 ft * 15 ft = 187.5 ft²
