Answer:

44.08 or 44.1

Explanation:

OK so the basics of this question is that for every 45 feet of the actual skyscraper we have 2 inches in the model. The first thing we do is divide 992/45 which equals 22.04. Know if this was 1 inch for every 45 feet we would be done however we need to multiply this number by 2 to get our answer so 22.04*2 =44.08
