The tallest building in the United States is the One World Trade Center in New York. It stands 541 meters tall. Bri was building a model for school and wanted to show what a 5 foot tall person would look like next to this building. She decided to make the model of One World Trade Center 4 feet tall. How tall, in inches, should the model of the person be standing next to the building? Round your answer to the nearest tenth of an inch. (Note: there are about 3.3 feet in each meter)

The model of the person should be standing 0.1 inch tall next to the building

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question,

The One World Trade Center stands 541 meters tall. Convert this to feet.

Let the height of the building be x feet

From the question, there are about 3.3 feet in each meter.

If 3.3 feet = 1 meter

Then, x feet = 541 meters

x = 541 × 3.3 = 1785.3 feet

Hence, the building height in feet is 1785.3 feet.

Also from the question,

Bri decided to make the model of One World Trade Center 4 feet tall. That is

4 feet represents 1785.3 feet

To determine what a 5 foot tall person would look like next to building, we will determine what the height of the person would be in the model.

Let the height of the person in the model be y

Now,

If 4 feet represents 1785.3 feet

Then, y feet will represent 5 feet

y = (5×4) / 1785.3 = 0.0112026 foot

This will be height of the 5 foot tall person in the model.

To determine how tall in inches the model of the person should be standing next to the building, we will convert 0.0112026 foot to inches

(NOTE: 1 foot = 12 inches)

If 1 foot = 12 inches

Then, 0.0112026 foot will be 0.0112026 × 12 inches

0.0112026 foot = 0.1344 inch

≅ 0.1 inch

Hence, the model of the person should be standing 0.1 inch tall next to the building.
