Alia made a scale drawing of a square park, which has a side length of 30 feet. She used the scale 3 centimeter = 5 feet. What will be the area of the scale drawing?

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the scale conversion;

3 centimeter = 5 feet

x = 30 feet

Cross multiply

5x = 3 * 30

5x = 90

x = 90/5

x = 18cm

Hence the side length in cm is 18cm

Area of the square = L²

Area of the square = 18²

Area of the square = 324cm²

Hence the area of the scale drawing is 324cm²
