Question

A model train is 9 centimeters long. The actual engine is 18 meters long. What is the scale of the model? Tracy has a model train set that is 59 centimeters long. How long would the train be in real life?

Answer 1

Answer:

1 cm : 2m

1 cm = 2m

118m

Step-by-step explanation:

A scale drawing is a reduced form in terms of dimensions of an original image / building / object

the scale drawing is usually reduced at a constant dimension

scale of the drawing = original dimensions / dimensions of the scale drawing

18 / 9 = 2 : 1

59 x 2 = 118
