Question

Is the answer to this question 30?

Answer 1

Yes, the answer to this question is 30.

Explanation:

We are trying to find the height of the smaller model of the statue of liberty.

We can use cross multiplication to find this out.

Since the width of the original is 30, and the width of the model will be 3, that makes the first part of the equation, where the height of the original is 300 and the height of the model is x, the second part.

So we form the equation:

width of original / width of model = height of original / height of model

OR,

`(30)/(3)=(300)/(x)`

Now, cross multiply 30 with x and 300 with 3 to get

`30x = 900`

Finally, divide by 30 to get your answer

x = 30

This means the Unionville statue should be 30 feet tall.
