Answer 1

Question:

Solution:

Notice that 1 in is equivalent to 20 ft, then using the appropriate conversion factors we have that:

$2\text{ in (}\frac{20\text{ ft}}{1in}\text{) = 40 ft}$

and

$1\frac{1}{4}\text{ in (}\frac{20\text{ ft}}{1in}\text{) =}\frac{5}{4}in\text{ (}\frac{20\text{ ft}}{1in}\text{) = 25 ft}$

then the actual dimensions of the Baroque Art room are:

$40\text{ ft x 25 ft}$

then, the correct answer is:

$40\text{ ft x 25 ft}$
