To find the actual area of the bedroom, we first need to understand the scale of the drawing. However, since a specific scale is not provided, we typically assume a common scale used in such drawings (such as 1 cm = 1 foot). If you have a different scale in mind, please specify.

Assuming a scale of 1 cm = 1 foot:

  1. The width of the bedroom is 2.5 cm, which converts to 2.5 feet.
  2. The length of the bedroom is 3.5 cm, which converts to 3.5 feet.

Next, we calculate the actual area of the bedroom in square feet:

\[ \text{Area} = \text{Length} \times \text{Width} \]

\[ \text{Area} = 3.5 , \text{ft} \times 2.5 , \text{ft} = 8.75 , \text{square feet} \]

If the scale is different, please provide it for an accurate calculation. If you expect a different unit or measurement, just let me know!
