Question

A statue in the park is 24 feet tall and has a width of 36 inches. Chase was in

ceramics class and decided to make a model of the statue. The model is 16 inches
tall. How wide is the model (to the nearest tenth of an inch)?

Answer 1

22.33 feet tall / 267.96 inches tall

Step-by-step explanation:

The statue is 36 inches wide. If Chase made his model of the statue 16 inches wide, he decreased it by 20 inches. Now change the inches into feet. 36 inches would be 3 feet, 16 inches would be 1.33 feet and 20 inches would be 1.67 feet. 24ft - 1.67 = 22.33ft. Now change the answers to inches. 22.33ft will be 267.96 inches tall.
