Question

A model of a car was built with a ratio of

2 in : 1 ft. If the model car is 28.5 in,
how long is the actual car?​

Answer 1

14.25 feet, or 171 inches.

Explanation:

there are six 2 inches in 1 foot (or 12 inches), so you can multiply

28.5 inches * 6 = 171 inches. Then divide 171 by 12 or the original number of 28.5 inches by 2 to get 14.25 feet.
