Question

A building has a height of 120 feet. The scale used to make a model of the building was 2 inch: 5 feet . What is the height of the model of the building

Answer 1

48 Inches

Explanation:

First we divide 120/5. This allows us to multiply the number, in this case 24, by two inches in order to find the height of the model building, which is 48 inches.

120/50=24

2*24=48
