A model of a house is 6 inch wide and 8 inches long. If the actual house is 20 yards long, how wide is the actual house?
A) 2.4 yd
B) 4.8 yd
C) 15 yd
D) 26 yd

Respuesta :

We can create a ratio of length to width. The length of the model is 8, while the width is 6. This is a 4:3 ratio of length to width. We can input this into the actual length, 4(5):3(5) = 20:15. Therefore, the actual width is 15 yd
