Answer:
B. 315 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
The length of the longer side of the lot on drawing = 6.3 cm
Given a scale of 1cm : 50 m
Let the length of the longer side be represented as x.
Therefore, the actual length of the longer side will be calculated as follows:
1:50 = 6.3:x
1/50 = 6.3/x
Cross multiply
x*1 = 50*6.3
x = 315
Actual length of the longer side of the lot = 315 meters
