To find the actual length of the wall, you need to multiply the length of the wall in the blueprint by the scale factor of 35.
3 inches x 35 = 105 inches
Now, to convert 105 inches to feet, divide by 12 since there are 12 inches in 1 foot.
105 inches / 12 = 8.75 feet
Therefore, the length of the actual wall is 8.75 feet.
The correct answer is: 8.75 feet
