Respuesta :

Answer:

Length of Ramsey's model in inches = 2.08

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Scale of the airplane model made:

1 inch  = 100 feet

Actual length of the airplane = 208 feet

To find the length of inches.

Solution:

We will use unitary method to find the length of airplane in inches.

If 100 ft of actual length = 1 in in the model

then, 1 ft of actual length will be = [tex]\frac{1}{100}\ in[/tex]

So, 208 ft of actual length will be = [tex]208\times \frac{1}{100}\ in[/tex]

⇒ [tex]\frac{208}{100}\ in[/tex]

⇒ 2.08 in

Thus, 208 feet of actual length will correspond to 2.08 inches  in the model.
