Serika has hired Tom to build her a dollhouse. The dollhouse will be a scale model of her home, and the scale will be 2 inches :
3 feet.
The living room in Serika’s house is 18 feet by 12 feet and has wall-to-wall beige carpeting. How many square inches of
carpeting will Tom need for the living room in Serika’s dollhouse?

Respuesta :

Answer:

96 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The scale is 2 inches : 3 feet

Thus for 18 feet in Serika's real house, the model is 18 * (2"/3') = 12 inches

For 12 feet in Serika's real house, the model is 12 * (2"/3') = 8 inches

Area of carpeting needed in Serika's dollhouse = 12" * 8" = 96 square inches
