Respuesta :

30÷5 = 6
8×6= 48 feet

Answer:

48 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

A room in a house is shown on a blueprint.

The blueprint has a scale of 5 inches = 8 feet.

Therefore, 1 inches = [tex]\frac{8}{5}[/tex] = 1.6 feet

The length of the wall in the blueprint = 30 inches

The actual length of the wall = 30 × 1.6

                                                = 48 feet.

The actual length of the wall is 48 feet.
