Answer:

40.5 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

It was given that the scale is 1 in. =3ft.

The perimeter of the blueprint measures 3.75 in. wide and 4.5 in. long.

The perimeter of the blueprint is

Perimeter =2(l+w)

We substitute the length and width to get:

Perimeter=2(3+3.75)

Perimeter=2(6.75)

Perimeter=13.5 in

To find the perimeter of the actual bedroom, we multiply by 3.

Perimeter of actual bedroom =3×13.5 ft=40.5ft
