Question

A model of a famous statue is 2 and one half inches tall. The actual statue is 6 and two thirds feet tall. What is the ratio of the height of the model to the height of the actual statue in simplest​ form?

Answer 1

First, you will need to find a common denominator and turn it into a ratio.
1 2/4 : 5 1/4
Then you will need to turn it into an improper fraction.
6/4 : 21/4
You can then divide the numerators by 3 and then simplify from there.
1/2 : 1 3/4
I hope this helps :)
