Question

Antonio made a scale model of a building. The model's scale is 1 inch to 235 feet and its height is 3.5 inches. What is the exact height of the actual building? Enter your answer in the box.

______Ft.

Answer 1

The answer is 822.5 feet.

Answer 2

Since the model is 1 inch to 235 feet, and the height of the model is 3.5 inches, that means all you need to do is multiply 235 feet by 3.5

235 × 3.5 = 822.5

The answer is 822.5 feet. If your teacher is technical about exact feet, round up to 823 feet.
