Bryan created a scale drawing of his rectangular bedroom. His drawing had dimensions of 6 inches by 8 inches. If the scale that Bryan used to create his drawing was 1 inch = 2 feet, what is the perimeter of his actual bedroom?

56 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

If 1 inch = 2 feet, we can first find the actual dimensions of his room by multiplying the number of inches by 2.

6(2)

= 12

8(2)

= 16

So, the actual dimensions of his room are 12 feet by 16 feet.

To find the perimeter, use the perimeter formula, P = 2l + 2w.

Plug in the length and width:

P = 2l + 2w

P = 2(12) + 2(16)

P = 24 + 32

P = 56

So, the perimeter of his actual room is 56 feet.
