Answer 1

Answer: $20\ \text{unit}\times 10\ \text{unit}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

A studio apartment has a floor that measures $120\ ft \times 60\ ft$

Scale used is 1 unit:6 feet i.e 6 feet of actual floor is considered 1 unit in drawing

The dimension of scale drawing is $\frac{1}{6}$ of actual

Dimensions are

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{120}{6}\times \dfrac{60}{6}\\\\\Rightarrow 20\ \text{unit}\times 10\ \text{unit}$
