Question

Can you go to grandmas estate and measures 8 inches across by 2 inches high if the actual stadium measures 500 feet across which equation can be used to find ex the height of the stadium in feet

Answer 1

Explanation:

Given that,

The estate is estimated as 8in across and the actual measure across is 500 ft

Then, this shows that

8in represent 500ft on scale

Then, divide both sides by 8

1in will represent 62.5ft

Now, we are told that the height of the stadium is estimated as 2inches, so what is the real value in ft

Since, 1in =62.5ft

Then, multiply both sides by 2

Therefore, 2in=125ft.

The height of the stadium in feet is 125ft
