Question

Item 14 Find the missing dimension. Use the scale factor 1 : 12.

Answer 1

Answer:

3.84m

Step-by-step explanation:

If the scale for this Water tower is 1 : 12 then this means that for every 1cm of the model, the actual water tower has 12cm. Therefore, in order to find the actual depth of the water tower we first need to multiply the depth of the model by 12.

32cm * 12 = 384cm

1 cm is equal to 0.01 m , therefore we now have to multiply the depth of the actual water tower which is in cm by 0.01 to get the actual depth in meters

384 * 0.01 = 3.84m
