Answer:
1 : 1.6
For every centimeter on the model, it is 11.6 centimeters on the real plane
Step-by-step explanation:
The required value of the scale of the model in the form of 1:160.
Given that,
The wingspan of the model is 50 centimeter,
The wingspan of the real plane is 80 meter.
We have to determine,
The scale of the model and give your answer in the form 1 : n.
According to the question,
The wingspan of the model = 50 centimeter [tex]= \frac{50}{100} = 0.5m[/tex]
The wingspan of the real plane is 80 meter.
The ratio of the scale = 1:n
Therefore,
The equation of proportion is,
[tex]\frac{wingspan \ of \ the \ model}{wingspan\ of \ the \ palne} = \frac{1}{n}[/tex]
Putting all the values in the equation,
[tex]\frac{0.5}{80} = \frac{1}{n} \\\\n = \frac{1 \times 80}{0.5} \\\\n = 160[/tex]
The value of n = 160.
Hence, The required value of the scale of the model in the form of 1:160.
