Answer:

Ratio [Model : Actual] = 1:16

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Height of model = $2\frac{1}{2}$ inches = 5/2 inches = 2.5 inches

Height of actual status = $3\frac{1}{3}$ feet = 10 / 3 feet

Find:

Ratio [Model : Actual]

Computation:

Height of actual status = $3\frac{1}{3}$ feet = 10 / 3 feet

Height of actual status = [10 / 3] x 12

Height of actual status = 40 inches

Ratio [Model : Actual] = 2.5 / 40

Ratio [Model : Actual] = 1:16
