Answer:

12 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

So, we are going to let "x" be the height inches (in the model) of a 84 foot building.

According to the information that was given we know that the height of a two-story building is 21 feet and in the scale model its height is 3 inches.Knowing this, we can set up the following proportion:

3/21 = x/84

The final step is to solve for "x" in order to calculate its value. We get that this is: 3/21 =x/84

(84) (3/21) = x

So , an 84 foot building will be 12 inches tall in the model.

(when I do the "3/21 it doesn't mean divide it's a fraction"

84 feet times 12 inches because 12 inches is a foot.

so 84 feet times 12 inches gets your answer. 84 times 12=1008

Answer:

2nd debate was 3 hours long.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that during the mayoral election,two debates were held between the candidates. The first debate lasted 1 2/3 hours. The second one was 1 4/5 times as long as the first one.

Let us find the estimate of time spent on 2nd debate.

1 2/3 hours would be approximately 2 hours. 1 4/5 times would be equal to 2 times.

$2*2=4$
