Assuming the scale is 750:1, you can set up the following proportion:

[tex] \frac{301}{x} = \frac{750}{1} [/tex]

Cross multiply the values.

750x = 301

Divide both sides by 750 to solve for x.

x = [tex] \frac{301}{750} [/tex]

Converted to a decimal and rounded to the nearest tenth, the scale model will be 0.4 meters tall.
