Sue wants to build a model of the Skyway Bridge for a school project. She decides that her scale model needs to be 1/10th the size of the real bridge. When she looked online, she found that the base of the bridge is 4000 ft long and 100 ft wide. If she uses a scale of inches to feet, what are the dimensions of her model? (you will have TWO answers)

400 inches by 10 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of the bridge = 4000feet

Width of the bridge = 100 feet

Since Sue decides that her scale model needs to be 1/10th the size of the real bridge.

If she uses a scale of inches to feet, the dimensions of her model will be:

Length = 4000 × 1/10 = 400 inches

Width = 100 × 1/10 = 10 inches.

Therefore, the dimensions are 400 inches by 10 inches
