A model of a skyscraper uses the scale of 2 inches = 45 feet. If the actual skyscraper is 992 feet tall, how tall is the model?
kvasek [131]

Answer:

44.08 or 44.1

Step-by-step explanation:

OK so the basics of this question is that for every 45 feet of the actual skyscraper we have 2 inches in the model. The first thing we do is divide 992/45 which equals 22.04. Know if this was 1 inch for every 45 feet we would be done however we need to multiply this number by 2 to get our answer so 22.04*2 =44.08
