width: a. 36 b. 34 c. 35 d. 33
length: a. 48 b. 45 c. 46 d. 47

Answer 1

Given that the die-cast has been represented by 3/16 in to 1 foot, We are are required to calculate for the actual measure of a toy measuring 6.5 inches wide and 8.5 inches long;
the actual width will be given by:
(6.5÷3/16)×1
=34.66666667
=35 feet
The actual length will be given by:
(8.5÷3/16)×1
=45.333
=45 feet

Answer 2

Answer:

width = 35 feet

length = 45 feet
