On a model train, 1 inch = 5 feet in real life. If a model train is 10 inches wide, how wide is it in real life? *

Answer:

50 feet or 600 inches

Explanation:

If 1 inch is directly proportional to 5 feet in real life, then you can multiply in order to find the amount if it is 10 inches.

5*10 = 50

So if one inch equals 5 feet, then 10 inches, equal 50 feet

If you need the inches, then it would be 600 because 50 times 12 is 600
