The area of a square floor on a scale drawing is 25 square centimeters, and the scale drawing is 1 centimeter:5 ft. What is the area of the actual floor? What is the ratio of the area in the drawing to the actual area?

Answer :

Answer:

[tex]625ft^{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

First get the l by finding the square root of the area

[tex]\sqrt{25}[/tex] = 5cm

since             1cm = 5ft

what about   5cm =?

(5cm×5ft)/1cm

l=25ft

area of the actual floor is l × l

[tex]25^{2}[/tex]

which is [tex]625ft^{2}[/tex]
