A table is 4 ft high. A model of the table is 6 in. high. What is the ratio of the height of the actual table to the height of the model table?
1/8

8/1

2/3

3/2

Respuesta :

2/3 is the answer because 6 in is the model and 4 ft is the actual

Answer:

The  ratio of the height of the actual table to the height of the model table is [tex]\frac{8}{1}[/tex] .

Step-by-step explanation:

As given

A table is 4 ft high. A model of the table is 6 in. high.

As

1 foot = 12 inch

Now convert 4 ft into inches .

4 ft = 4 × 12

     = 48 inches

Height of the actual table = 48 inches

Now the ratio of the height of the actual table to the height of the model

table .

[tex]Ratio\ of\ the\ height\ of\ the\ actual\ table\ to\ the\ height\ of\ the\ model\ table =\frac{48}{6}[/tex]

[tex]Ratio\ of\ the\ height\ of\ the\ actual\ table\ to\ the\ height\ of\ the\ model\ table =\frac{8}{1}[/tex]

Therefore the  ratio of the height of the actual table to the height of the model table is [tex]\frac{8}{1}[/tex] .
