Answer 1

Answer: $\frac{485}{ 1,454}$

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to analize the information provided in the exercise.

You know that:

• The height of the replica of the Empire State Building with its antenna spire in Las Vegas is 485 feet.
• The height of the real Empire State building is  1,454 feet.

Then, in order to find the ratio of height of the replica to the height of the real Empire State building you must divide the height of the replica by the height of the real Empire State building.

Therefore, this is:

$ratio=\frac{heigth_{ replica}}{heigth_{real}}=\frac{485}{ 1,454}$

(This fraction cannot be reduced)
