QUESTION OF THE DAY: Judy is recreating a small version of the Statue of Liberty out of clay. The scale for the statue is 3 inches to 100 feet. If the actual height of the statue is 305 feet, what would the height of the model be in inches?

184in

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the scale for the statue is 3 inches to 100 feet, we can say 3:100 as a ratio.

To find approximately 305 feet you must divide 305 by 100.

100 can go into 300 evenly 3 times. Since the ratio is 3:100 you should multiply how many times the 100ft fit into the 300ft and the 3in (3 x 3) which is about 9in.

One way we can do this is to divide the hight of the Statue by the model height:

305ft 20in = 15.25ft 1in or 184in (12in per foot).

And so for every inch of the model, it represents 15.25 feet.

For 305 it would be

irrational, then, just means all the numbers that aren't rational. every integer is a rational number, since each integer n can be written in the form n/1. however, numbers like 1/2, 45454737/2424242, and -3/7 are also rational, since they are fractions whose numerator and denominator are integers.
