What is the area of a section of pavement that is 20 ft wide and 80 yd​ long? Give your answer in square feet.

1600 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

4,800 feet²

Step-by-step explanation:

[1] So we have two different units, 20 feet and 80 yards. First we need to get that into one unit. Since the answer is asking for feet, we will mutiple 80 by 3 (3 feet in a yard) to get 240 feet.

[2] We then mutiply 20 by 240 as area is length times width (or width times length) for an answer of 4,800.

[3] Last but not least, this is area so we have to answer in square feet. Our final answer is 4,800 feet²

step-by-step explanation:

option a is correct.

step-by-step explanation:

scale factor: it is used to find proportional measurements.

proportions means having the same ratio.

scale factor is the ratio of the model measurement to the actual measurement in a simplest form.

or we can say that the ratio of any two corresponding lengths in two similar geometric figures

if the scale factor is more than 1, then it is an enlargement,

if the scale factor less than 1, then it is a reduction.

given the two geometric figure:

by definition of proportions, we have
