There are two scales that may be possible for this scale model; one where it's for every foot and one where it's for every meter.
The for every foot would be better to find out since the scale would be easier to use.
First, you have to divide each sided by 4.2, since you want to find how many meters for each foot.
![4.2 \div 4.2 = 1 \\ 525 \div 4.2 = 125](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=4.2%20%5Cdiv%204.2%20%3D%201%20%5C%5C%20525%20%5Cdiv%204.2%20%3D%20125)
For every 1 foot used in the model, the actual will be 125 meters.
1 ft = 125 m
The first option, as it positively supports the claim stated.
Answer:
25
I hope i got it in time :)
So it's actually 0.36363636... with the 36 repeating, right?
<span>Here's a technique for converting repeating decimals to fractions: </span>
<span>N = 0.3636363636... </span>
<span>100N = 36.36363636... </span>
<span>This means 100N - N = (36.363636...) - (0.36363636...). This simplifies to 99N = 36, because the "0.36363636..." parts of both numbers on the right cancel each other out. </span>
<span>Solving this for N gives </span>
<span>N = 36/99, or 4/11 </span>
<span>If you take a calculator (or use long division) and divide 4 by 11, you'll see that it's 0.36363636...</span>
Your answer is 6 over 24 multiplied by 6 over 23.
