Question

The freedom tower is 1,776 feet tall. Mr. Freeman's students are building a replica of the tower for a class project that will stand 4.44 feet tall. Write a percent that compares the height of the replica to the hight of the actual tower. Then shade the 10x10 grid to model the percent

Answer 1

Percentage is the value of the ratio of two numbers expressed a fraction of 100

Height of the replica is 0.25% of the actual height of the Freedom tower

The reason the percentage value is correct is given as follows:

The percentage of the height of the actual Freedom tower that the replica represents is given as follows;

$Percentage \ of \ actual \ height =\dfrac{Replica \ height}{Actual \ height \ of \ the \ Freedom \ tower} \times 100$

The given parameter are;

The height of the Freedom tower = 1,776 feet

Replica height = 4.44 feet

$Replica \ percentage \ of \ actual \ height =\dfrac{4.44 \ feet}{1,776 \ feet} \times 100 = 0.25 \%$

Therefore, the height of the replica is 0.25% of the actual height of the Freedom tower
