Curtis wants to build a model of a 180 meter tall building. He will be using a scale of 1.5 centimeters = 3.5 meters. How tall will the model be? Round your answer to the nearest tenth.
You could set up a proportion for this question.
1.5 centimeters = 3.5 meters
x centimeters = 180 meters
1.5 x 180 / 3.5
Rounded to the nearest whole number, the answer is 77.
