A die-cast plane toy is scaled at inch to 1 foot. If the toy is 6.5 inches wide and 8.5 inches long, determine the dimensions of the actual plane, to the nearest foot.

Respuesta :

The plane is actually 6.5 feet wide and 8.5 feet long, but to the nearest foot, it's 7 feet wide and 9 feet long.

One foot is equal to 12 inches. So the actual plane is 12 times bigger than the toy and it's [tex]6.5ft\approx 7ft[/tex] wide and [tex]8.5ft\approx 9ft[/tex] long.
