First convert 2m to cm: 2m x 100 = 200 cm Next convert 6m to cm: 6m x 100 = 600 cm Divide the height of the person by his/her shadow: 200cm ÷ 600cm = <span>0.33333333333 = .3</span> Multiply 360cm by .3: 360cm x .3 = 108cm 108cm ÷ 100 = 1.08m
The answer to B. is 6.8 cm.
The scale seems a bit small... are you sure you don't mean 0.8 m? a = length of actual car. 8.5 x 0.8 = 1 x a 6.8 = 1 x a 6.8 ÷ 1 = a 6.8 = a
If you did mean 0.8 m... the answer is 680 cm or 6.8 m.
a = length of actual car. 0.8m x 100 = 80cm 8.5 x 80 = 1 x a 680 = 1 x a 680 ÷ 1 = a 680 = a 680 ÷ 100 = 6.8
