Answer: The length of the beetle in the drawing is 9 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, since is a scaling up scale, we have to multiply the original length of the beetle (1.8 cm) by 5 to obtain the length of the beetle in the drawing.

Mathematically speaking

5 x 1.8 = 9 cm

The length of the beetle in the drawing is 9 cm.

This type of scale is used to increase in size.
