Question

Most action figure toys are made in a 1:6 ratio. If the action figure is 12.5 in. tall, how tall is the person the figure is based on?

Answer 1

The person the figure is based on would be 75 inches tall.

I found this by setting up a proportion
1/6=12.5/x

If we use the fish method, we would take 6 x 12.5 / 1 = x
6 x 12.5 = 75 / 1 =75
x = 75

Hope this helps! :D
