a scale model of a car is drawn with a scale of 1:12. if the scale model is 185mm long, how long is the actual car?

185 * 12 = ?

To find the length of the actual car, we can use the following equation:

Actual Length = Scale Length × Scale Ratio

Here, the scale length is given as 185mm, and the scale ratio is 1:12.

Let's calculate the actual length of the car:

Actual Length = 185 mm × 12
Actual Length = 2220 mm

Therefore, the actual length of the car is 2220 mm.

To find the length of the actual car, we can use the given scale and the length of the scale model.

The scale 1:12 means that for every 1 unit on the scale model, the actual car is 12 times longer.

In this case, the scale model is 185mm long.

To find the length of the actual car, we can set up a proportion:

Length of scale model / Length of actual car = Scale factor

Let's denote the length of the actual car as "x":

185mm / x = 1/12

To solve for x, we can cross-multiply:

185mm * 12 = x

x = 2,220mm

Therefore, the actual car is 2,220mm long.

the answer is 2,220
