c. 0.75 square meters
d. 1.33 square meters
c. 0.75 square meters
Since the longer side of the campsite in the scale drawing is 1 meter, and the scale drawing is a rectangle, the area of the scale drawing can be calculated by multiplying the length by the width. Given that the width is not provided, we cannot determine the exact area in square meters, but we do know that it would be less than 1 square meter. Therefore, the closest answer is 0.75 square meters.
