Question

A toy remote control jeep is 12 1/2 inches wide while an actual jeep is pictured to be 18 3/4 feet wide. What is the value of the ratio of the width of the remote control jeep to width of the actual jeep?

Answer 1

1 foot = 12 inches
12 1/2 or 12.5 inches
18 and 3/4 or 18.75 X 12= 225
The ratio is 12.5:225 or to simplify 1:18.
