The Space Needle is 605 feet tall. A model of the building is 15 inches tall. What is the ratio of the height of the model to the height of the actual Space Needle?(1 point)
The ratio of the height of the model to the height of the actual Space Needle can be calculated by dividing the height of the model by the height of the actual Space Needle.
Since the height of the model is given in inches and the height of the Space Needle is given in feet, we need to convert the height of the Space Needle to inches before performing the calculation.
1 foot = 12 inches
605 feet = 605 * 12 = 7260 inches
Now we can calculate the ratio:
Ratio = Height of model / Height of Space Needle = 15 inches / 7260 inches = 1/484
Therefore, the ratio of the height of the model to the height of the actual Space Needle is 1/484.
