In a model of a ship, the mast is 9 cm high, while the mast of the actual ship is 12 m high. If the length of the ship is 28 m, how long is the model ship?
Let the length of the mast of modal ship be x when the length of the actual ship be 28 cm
The given information in the form of table is as follows:
Height of ship | Length of ship | |
Modal ship | 9 | x |
Actual ship | 12 | 28 |
The above information is in direct information:
9/12 = x/28
→x = 21 cm
