The showroom for a new apartment complex includes a scale model of the building. The scale factor is 352. If the actual apartment building will be 44 m wide, how wide is the scale model?
154.9 m
10 m
12.5 m
15 m
To find the width of the scale model, we can use the scale factor. The scale factor is the ratio of the size of the actual building to the size of the scale model. It is given as 352, which means that 1 meter of the actual building is represented by 352 meters in the scale model.
To find the width of the scale model, we can divide the width of the actual building by the scale factor:
Scale Model Width = Actual Building Width / Scale Factor
Scale Model Width = 44 m / 352
Scale Model Width = 0.125 m
Therefore, the width of the scale model is 0.125 m, which is equivalent to 12.5 cm. Answer: \boxed{12.5 \ m}.
