Answer: 108 centimeters

Explanation:

2 centimeters represents 6 meters;

This means 2 centimeters on the model represent 6 meters of the Eiffel Tower.

Let the height of the model = h

h of the model is = to the actual height of the tower

Actual Height of tower = 324 meters

2 = 6

h = 324

6 x h = 324 x 2

6h = 648

h = 648 divided by 6

h = 108

Answer:

108 centimeters

Explanation:

Given that :

Scale model used for the Eiffel Tower :

2 centimeter represents 6 meters;

This means 2 centimeters on the model represents 6 meters of the Eiffel Tower.

To obtain the height of the model in centimeter :

Let the height of the model = h

h of model = actual height of tower

Actual Height of tower = 324 meters

Using cross multiplication :

2 = 6

h = 324

6 * h = 324 * 2

6h = 648

h = 648 / 6

h = 108

Hence, height of the model = 108 centimeters
