Question

Your model train is 18 inches long.
It is an exact model of a train that is 72 feet long.
A window on the train is how many times wider than a window on the model?

Answer 1

Answer:

48 times wider

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert length of train to inches:

$72 * 12 = 864$ inches

Divide the length of the train by the length of the model train to find the scale.

and since the model train is proportional to the train, the window on the train is 48 times wider than the window on the model.
