Answer:

Answer:

[tex]Area=4418\,feet^{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that in the model the length is 2 inches and 1 inch in width. As we know 1 inch is 47 feet, then:

For the length we have: [tex]2\,inches\times\dfrac{47\,feet}{1\,inch}=94\,feet[/tex]

For the width we have: [tex]1\,inches\times\dfrac{47\,feet}{1\,inch}=47\,feet[/tex]

To know the area we just need to multiply length by width.

[tex]Area=94\,feet\times47\,feet=4418\,feet^{2}[/tex]

then the area of the building is: [tex]4418ft^{2}[/tex]
