Answer:

60in^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given data

lenght L= 5in

width W= 3 in

area= L*W

area= 5*3= 15in^2

Step two:

The rectangle was scaled by 2, this means that the dimensions were doubled

therefore the lenght and width will be

L=5*2= 10

W=3*2= 6

hence the area is

Area= 10*6= 60in^2
