Question

You have been asked to build a scale model of your school out of toothpicks. Imagine your school is 30 feet tall. Your scale is 1 ft:1.26 cm.

Answer 1

The model will be 6 toothpicks tall.

Explanation:

your school is 30 feet tall and 1 feet is 1.26 cm, so you would most likely multiply 30 and 1.26 in order to get the height of the scale model which is 37.8 cm. Each toothpick is 6.3 cm, you would take 37.8 and divide it by 6.3 to get the number of toothpicks So, for you to build the school, it would be 6 tp tall.
