Question

Daren draws a scale model of the Statue of Liberty that is 15 inches tall. If the Statue of Liberty is 305 feet tall, what is the scale of the model?​

Answer 1

Answer:

The scale of the model is 1 : 244.

Step-by-step explanation:

15 inches = 1.25 feet. (1 inch = 0.0833333 feet)

Hence, the scale is 1.25 : 305 = 1 : 244. (1.25 / 1.25 : 305 / 1.25)

Hope this helped!
