Answer:

I. Length = 600 meters

II. Width = 30 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following data;

Length = 120m

Width = 6m

Drawing scale = 1:5

To find the length and width using the given drawing scale;

This ultimately implies that, with this drawing scale, the length and width of the rectangle would increase by a factor of 5 (multiplied by 5) i.e the rectangle is 5 times bigger in real-life than on the diagram.

For the length;

120 * 5 = 600 meters

For the width;

6 * 5 = 30 meters

Therefore, the dimensions of the rectangle using the given drawing scale is 600 meters by 30 meters.
