On the drawing with a scale of 1:500, the side length of a square flowerbed is 4cm. How many square meters is the actual area of the flowerbed?
Why is the actual area: 20 * 20 = 400 square meters instead of side length * 4, that is, 20 * 4 = 80


Side length * 4 is the perimeter of a square, not its area
Area is side length * side length



On a drawing with a scale of 500:1, the diameter of a semicircular flowerbed measured is 4cm. Find out the actual floor area of the flowerbed
1:500! It's not 500:1


Actual floor area = 500x4 = 2000cm2 = 20m2
