Question

You are build a water tower. The scale factor is 1 : 12. The model depth is 32 centimeters. What is the actual depth in meters?

HELP ME!!!!

Answer 1

Scale Factor = 1 : 12

It means, for every 12 centimeters, it is 1 centimeter in the model

The depth of Tower in model = 32 cm
In real, It would be: 32 * 12 = 384 cm

We know, 1 m = 100 cm
So, 384 cm = 384/100 = 3.84 m

In short, Your Answer would be: 3.84 meter

Hope this helps!
