A scale drawing of a rectangular room has a length of six inches and a width of 4 inches. The drawing uses a scale of one inch to three feet. Find the cost to carpet the room if carpeting costs $5.50 per square foot. What is the shape of the room? Answer the next questions about the above room. So what is the square footage

We know that:

1 inch in the drawing, equals 3 feet in the real room.

Then if the scale is 6 in by 4 in, the actual room is:

6*3ft by 4*3ft

18ft by 12ft.

The total area of the room is:

18ft*12ft = 216ft^2.

Now we know that the price of the carpet is $5,50 per square ft,

The area of the room is 216 ft^2, then if we want to carpet the whole room, we need to pay 216 times $5.50.

Cost = 216*$5.50 = $1,188
