Answer:

[tex]31\ ft[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The scale is equal to

[tex]\frac{1}{10}\frac{cm}{ft}[/tex]

so

by proportion

Find how far apart should the actual trees be planted, if the trees are [tex]3.1\ cm[/tex] apart in the plan

[tex]\frac{1}{10}\frac{cm}{ft}=\frac{3.1}{x}\frac{cm}{ft}\\ \\x=10*3.1\\ \\x=31\ ft[/tex]
