Answer:

90ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

If she was trying to make it 4 times bigger is multiply the length or the width by a factor of 4

If the starting measurements were

5ft long and 4 1/2 feet wide you simply multiply the two

5 x 4.5 = 22.5 ft

Then when trying to make it 4 times bigger multiply your answer by 4

22.5 x 4 = 90ft^2

I belive its 15

Hope this helped.
