On the model scale drawing, approximately how much empty space lies between the bed and the dresser? Use complete sentences to explain your reasoning.

5.4 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

On the model scale drawing, there are approximately 5.4 feet of empty space that lies between the bed and the dresser. This is because the bed is 6.6 feet in length and the dresser is 1.5. If you add those together it would equal 8.1. Then you would subtract 8.1 from the length of the room, which is 13.5. Therefore, the empty space between the dresser and bed would be 5.4 feet.

Distance: 64 inches

Total area between: 3840in²

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between the bed and the dresser can be found by subtracting the length of the bed and dresser from the total length of the room.

80in. + 18in. + X in. = 13.5ft.

Next we must convert ft. to in. for like measurments.

80in. + 18in. + X in. = 162in.

98in. + X in. = 162in

X in = 64 in.

The distance from the bed to the dresser is 64 inches.

If you are looking for the total area between the bed and dresser, we must multiply the distance by the width of the bed.

64in. * 60in = 3840in²
