Question

A scale drawing of a rectangular

garden has a length of 4 inches and
a width of 2.5 inches. The scale is
1 inch:3 feet. What is the perimeter of
the actual garden in feet?

Answer 1

39 square feet

Explanation:

P = 2( L + W)

actual length = 4 * 3 = 12

actual width = 2.5 * 3 = 7.5

P = 2 (12 + 7.5)

P = 2 ( 19.5)

P = 39 feet
