Bea is building a

scale model of a museum building. Her model has a rectangular base that is



3 feet wide and

2feet long.

If the model's base width is 3 feet, the actual width of the museum building is 120 times larger, or 360 feet.

Follow the same reasoning to find the actual length of the museum building.

Multiply the actual width and actual length together to obtain the area of the base of this building.
