Based on the scale, the actual length of the Golden Gate Bridge is  68,600 inches.

<h3>What is the actual length of the Bridge?</h3>

A scale drawing is a reduced form in terms of dimensions of an original image / building / object. The scale drawing is usually reduced at a constant dimension. An example of a scale drawing is a map.

The scale of a drawing is usually written in this format -  length in the drawing, a colon (:), then the matching length on the original image. An example of a scale is 1 : 19,600. This scale means that 1 inch of the postcard represents 19.600 of the original Golden Gate Bridge.

Actual length of the Bridge = scale x length of the bridge in the postcard

19,600 x 3.5 = 68,600 inches
