1 cm = 15 m

so 6 cm = (6 * 15) = 90 m
and 20 cm = (20 * 15) = 300 m

A = L * W
A = 300 * 90
A = 27000 m^2 <=

Answer:

The answer for the area of the parking lot is 27,000m²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the shape of the parking lot is a rectangle we can model the area using the formula for area of a rectangle Which is

A= length *width

Step two :

Given length 20cm

Width 6cm

Furthermore the scale is

1cm:15m

That is 1cm represents 15m on paper

Therefore the length in meters

=20*15=300m

Width in meter

=6*15=90m

Area =300*90

Area =27,000m²
