Answer:

120 times

Explanation:

If we want to find a qunatity is how many times as other quantity, we have to divide the large one by the small one (remember, same units).

Let's make both into inches.

We have 1 inch [model]

also

10 feet * 12 = 120 inches

Thus, we can say:

120/1 = 120 times

So, Actual Plane is 120 times than model airplane
