The washington monument in washington, d. c., is about 556 ft. tall. a three-dimensional puzzle of the washington monument is 24 in. tall. what is the ratio of the height of the puzzle to the height of the real monument?

Set up a ratio. But first convert the height of the puzzle to feet so we are comparing the same unit of measure.

STEP 1
convert 24 inches to feet

12 inches= 1 foot

24 inches= 2 feet

STEP 2
set up ratio.

= 2 feet/556 feet or 2:556
simplify both by 2

= 1 ft/278 ft or 1:278

ANSWER: 1/278 or 1:278 (can be written either way)

Hope this helps! :)
