Answer:
<em>9</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
25 7/8 is just under 26.
2 8/9 is just under 3.
27 divided by 3 is 9, so just under 26 divided by just under 3 must be close to 9.
We have that
Her house is -----------------------24 feet tall
Her model is----------------------- 8 inches tall
The inch is a unit of length used primarily in the imperial and U.S.
customary measurement systems, representing 1/12 of a foot
in
=ft * 12.000
24
feet=12*24=288 inches
Her house is -----------------------288 inches tall
Her model is----------------------- 8 inches tall
288/8=36 scale of reduction
Her
brother is 5 feet tall
<span>The figurine in the model that
represents her brother (5/36)</span>=0.138889 feet
<span>0.138889*12=1.67 inches</span>
8 centemeters equals 3.15 inches
Set a proportion. They are similar triangles.
