Solution

To solve this problem, we need to use the scale provided. The scale is 2 centimeters : 1 meter. This means that 1 meter in real life is represented as 2 centimeters in the drawing.

We know that the actual width of the volleyball court is 9 meters. To find out how wide the volleyball court is in the drawing, we multiply the actual width by the scale.

So, 9 meters (the actual width of the volleyball court) multiplied by 2 centimeters (the scale) equals 18 centimeters.

Therefore, the volleyball court is 18 centimeters wide in the drawing.
