NO LINKS! Amelia built a scale model of a float, using the scale 48:7. The measurements of the actual float are given in this table. What is the length of the scale model of the float?

Drag and drop a number into the box.

Measurements are rounded to the nearest inch.

Length of float (in.)

Actual Measurements

Dimension Measurement

Length 97 inches

Width 54 inches

Height 72 inches

9514 1404 393

Step-by-step explanation:

The model scale tells you ...

  (model dimension) / (actual dimension) = 7/48

Multiplying by the actual dimension, we get ...

  model dimension = (actual dimension)×7/48

Then ...

  model length = (97 in)(7/48) = 14 7/48 in ≈ 14 in

  model width = (54 in)(7/48) = 7 7/8 in ≈ 8 in

  model height = (72 in)(7/48) = 10 1/2 in ≈ 11 in

points are handed out whenever you post answers.

brainliest answers are handed out by the person asking the question, so whether your answer is picked depends entirely on whether the asker bothers to pick

if you're asking about your rank, it depends on having a certain number of points and a certain number of brainliest answers. for example, at the time of this writing, i have 44338 points out of 15000 needed for the next (nearly triple the requirement! ) but i only have 24 out of 50 required brainliest answers. this number decays, meaning after a certain amount of time (i think about a month), the total number of brainliest answers you've earned doesn't count toward this total. (i've been stuck at the same rank for a long

the lesson to learn here is that you shouldn't worry about points or rank. chances are, no matter how good an answer you may provide, your efforts will go mostly unnoticed unless you focus on the newest/most active questions that get posted.
