Let x represent the height of the model.
We have been given that a construction company built a scale model of a building. The model was built using a scale of 3 inches = 32 feet. We are asked to find the height of the model, if the building is expected to be 200 feet tall.
We will use proportions to solve our given problem as:
Upon substituting our given values, we will get:
Therefore, the model will be 18.75 inches tall.
