Answer:

419 ft

Explanation:

convert ft to mm: 1063 ft ≈ 324002.4 mm (I just used g00gle)

324002.4/477 ≈ 679.25, the real Eiffel tower is ≈ 679.25 times larger

188 x 679.25 = 127699 mm

convert mm to ft: 127699 mm ≈ 418.96 ft ≈ 419 ft

Answer:

419 ft

Explanation:

1063 ft is about 324002.4 mm

324002.4/477 to get the scale ratio. Which is 679.25:1

I am halfway through the problem and notice I should have converted mm to ft and not the other way around. It gives the same answer it just takes an extra step.

188*679.25=127699mm for one side.

Convert that back to ft and you get 418.959 which would just be 419 ft
