Answer: 12 1/10 inches

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that Drada has a toy model of a sports car is 2 1/5 inches long and that she is making a larger model that will be 5 1/2 times the length of the smaller toy car.

The length of the larger model will therefore be:

= 2 1/5 × 5 1/2

= 11/5 × 11/2

= 121/10

= 12 1/10 inches
