Drawing scale is 1.5 inches = 2 feet
So, first we convert the dimensions used in drawing to actual dimension using this scale.
1.5 inches = 2 feet
1 inch = [tex] \frac{2}{1.5} [/tex] feet
⇒ 7.5 inches =[tex] \frac{2}{1.5} *7.5[/tex] = 10 feet
⇒ 10.5 inches = [tex] \frac{2}{1.5}*10.5 [/tex] = 14 feet
This means, the dimension of actual quilt are 10 feet by 14 feet. So the Area of the actual quilt will be:
Area = 10 x 14 = 140 feet²
So, area of actual quilt is 140 feet²
