Respuesta :

Answer:

A. Cutty Sark length is 3510

B. Cutty Sark height is 2028

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio represents how many units are of one kind every another kind.  

In this case , a Cutty Sark model kit advertises a scale ratio of 1: 78, that means that this model is 78 time smaller that the real ship. So if the model has  a length of 45 inches, and a height of 26 inches,  the Cutty Sark is 78 times bigger.  We get the real measures multiplying the length and height of the model by 78.

Cutty Sark length=45 inches x 78=3510

Cutty Sark height=26 inches x 78=2028
