No, that is not correct.
To determine the area of the room in square feet, we first need to find the dimensions of the room in the scale drawing. Let's say the length of the room in the drawing is 5 inches and the width is 3 inches.
Since the scale is 1:20, we need to multiply the dimensions by 20 to convert them to the actual dimensions of the room. So, the actual length of the room is 5 inches x 20 = 100 inches and the actual width is 3 inches x 20 = 60 inches.
To find the area, we multiply the actual length by the actual width: 100 inches x 60 inches = 6000 square inches.
To convert square inches to square feet, we divide by 144: 6000 square inches / 144 = 41.67 square feet.
Therefore, the area of the room in square feet is approximately 41.67 square feet.
