Answer 1

Answer:

1.2 Inches

Step-by-step explanation:

for this you just plug in the 48 and you get 48/40 which gives you 1.2 in

Answer 2

If the wingspan is 48 inches, and the model is 1/40, you have to find 1/40 of the original Wright brothers' Flyer, so 1/40 of 48.

48 * 1/40

48/40

Which simplifies to 6/5.

The models wingspan in fraction form is 6/5.

The models wingspan in decimal form is 1.2.

The models wingspan in mixed number form is 1 and 1/5.
