A scale model of a building has a height of 18 inches and a length of 14 inches. The height of the real building Is 360 ft. What

Naya [18.7K]

For this case, the first thing to do is find the scale factor.
Using the measure of height we have:
k = (360) / (18 * (1/12))
k = 240
Thus, the length of the building is:
(14 * (1/12)) * (240) = 280 feet
Answer:
The lenght of the real building is:
280 feet
