Omar is making a scale model of the Statue of Liberty for a report on New York . The Statue of Liberty is 305 feet tall measuring from the ground to the tip of the torch . If the model is 1/100 the actual size of the Statue of Liberty , how tall is the model?

The Statue of Liberty is 305 feet tall measuring from the ground to the tip of the torch . If the model is 1/100 the actual size of the Statue of Liberty

Actual size of the statue = 305

Model is
(1)/(100) of the actual size of the Statue of Liberty

Height of model =
(1)/(100) of the actual size

=
(1)/(100) * 305

=
(305)/(100)= 3.05

Model of Statue of Liberty is 3.05 feet tall
