Truett made a model of the Empire State Building for a school project. In his model, 1 inch represents 100 feet. If the actual height of the Empire State Building is 1,250 feet, how tall should Truett's model be
Since 1 inch represents 100 feet, to find the height of Truett's model, we need to divide the actual height of the Empire State Building by 100.
1,250 feet / 100 = 12.5 feet
Therefore, Truett's model of the Empire State Building should be 12.5 feet tall.
