The area of the scale drawing will be:
600 square feet.
Explanation:
The actual length of a wall in the room is 46 feet and the actual width of the room is 69 feet.
It is given that:
The scale factor of a room for a scale drawing is 2.3.
The length of the room according to the scale drawing will be:
46÷2.3=20 feet
and the width of the room according to scale drawing will be:
69÷2.3=30 feet
We know that the wall is in the shape of a rectangle.
This means that the area of scale drawing will be:
Length×Width
= 20×30
= 600 square feet.
