27. To find the height of the model of a 6ft. tall individual, we need to multiply 6 by the scale factor of 24.
6 x 24 = 144
Therefore, the correct height in inches of the model of a 6ft. tall individual is 144 inches.
28. To find the length of the car, we need to multiply the given length of the model by the scale factor of 24.
7 1/4 x 24 = 174
Therefore, the length of the car is 174 inches.
29. To find the actual length of the locomotive, we need to multiply the length of the model by the scale factor of 87.
8 x 87 = 696
Therefore, the actual length of the locomotive is 696 inches or 58 feet.
30. To find the length of the 1 : 265 scale model of the Titanic, we need to divide the actual length of the Titanic by the scale factor of 265.
883 ft. 9 in. = 10,603 inches
10,603 ÷ 265 = 40
Therefore, the length of the 1 : 265 scale model of the Titanic is 40 inches.
