At a height of about 212 meters, One Shell Square is the tallest building in New Orleans. Marlie is creating a scale model of this building, using the scale 250 meters : 1 meter. To the nearest tenth of a meter, what will be the height of the scale model? Enter your answer as a decimal in the box.
The correct answer for this question is this one:
It is sad that...
At a height of about 212 meters, One Shell Square is the tallest building in New Orleans. Marlie is creating a scale model of this building, using the scale 250 meters : 1 meter
So, that is 212/250 = 0.848. The answer in nearest tenth of a meter is 0.8
The height of the scale model is \(x = \frac{212}{250}\).
Given that,
Height of the shell square = 212meter
By Using the scale 250meters : 1 meter.
We have to find,
What will be the height of the scale model.
According to the question,
Let, Marlie is creating a scale model of this building, be x
Then ,
Measurement of scale 1 meter = using the scale 250 meters
1 meter = 250meter
Height of the scale model = Height of square shell
x = 212meter
By unity method,
\(\frac{250}{1} = \frac{212}{x} \\\\x = \frac{212}{250}\)
The required height of the scale model is \(x = \frac{212}{250}\).
