Question

Mason is building a scale model of a truck, using the scale 64 : 5. The actual measurements of the truck are given in the table. Dimension Measurement Length 230 inches Width 79 inches Height 80 inches Drag and drop the length of the scale model of the truck. Measurements are rounded to the nearest tenth of an inch.

Answer 1

The answer is 18. I hope I helped

Answer 2

`18.0\ in`

Explanation:

In this problem

we know that

The scale is equal to
`(64)/(5)`

The actual length of the truck is
`230\ in`

so

By proportion

Find the length of the scale model of the truck

Let

x-------> the length of the scale model of the truck

`(64)/(5)=(230)/(x)\\ \\x=5*230/64\\ \\x=17.97\ in`

Round to the nearest tenth of an inch

`17.97\ in=18.0\ in`
