one of the models of a dinosaur used in filming of a movie was only 15in tall. In the movie, the dinosaur appeared to have an actual height of 20ft. What is the Scale of the model?

Respuesta :

well, keeping in mind there are 12 inches in 1 foot, 20 feet is 20 * 12, or 240 inches.

[tex]\bf \cfrac{model}{actual}\qquad 15:240\qquad \cfrac{15}{240}\implies \cfrac{1}{16}[/tex]
