Question

When he was little, Miguel could not sleep without his Captain Terrific action figure. It looked so life-like because it was a perfect scale model. The actor who plays Captain Terrific on television is 216 cm tall. Miguel’s doll is 10 cm tall. If the doll’s neck is 0.93 cm long, how long is the actor’s neck? Use the Undoing Division Method to solve this proportion: .

Answer 1

The actor's neck is 20.08 cm long.

Step-by-step explanation:

The actor who plays Captain Terrific on television is 216 cm tall. Miguel’s doll is 10 cm tall.

Miguel’s doll is 10 cm tall and the doll’s neck is 0.93 cm long.

Let the doll's actor's neck be x cm

We can relate these as follows:

$\frac{216}{x} =\frac{10}{0.93}$

Solving for x now;

$10x=216*0.93$

=> $10x=200.88$

x = 20.08

Hence, the actor's neck is 20.08 cm long.

Answer 2

The answer is:
216×0.93÷10=20.088
