Answer:
[tex](a)\ r = 1in : 9ft[/tex]
[tex](b)\ r = 1 in: 15ft[/tex]
[tex](c)\ r = 1 in: 16ft[/tex]
[tex](d)\ r = 1in:4ft[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:

Required
The scale of each area
The scale ratio (r) is calculated as:
[tex]r = scale:actual[/tex]
So, we have:
(a) scale : 13 square inches and actual : 117 square feet
[tex]r = 13in : 117ft[/tex]
Divide by 13
[tex]r = 1in: 9ft[/tex]
(b) scale : 5 square inches and actual : 125 square feet
[tex]r = 5in : 125ft[/tex]
Divide by 5
[tex]r = 1in : 25ft[/tex]
(c) scale : 8 square inches and actual : 128 square feet
[tex]r = 8in : 128ft[/tex]
Divide by 8
[tex]r = 1in : 16ft[/tex]
(d) scale : 12 square inches and actual : 48 square feet
[tex]r = 12in : 48ft[/tex]
Divide by 12
[tex]r = 1in:4ft[/tex]
