Answer:

The height of the model is 30.5 in

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The scale is

[tex]\frac{1}{10}\frac{in}{ft}[/tex]

using proportion

Find out how tall will her model be  if the actual height is 305 ft

Let

x -----> the height of the model in inches

[tex]\frac{1}{10}\frac{in}{ft}=\frac{x}{305}\frac{in}{ft}\\\\x=305/10\\\\x=30.5\ in[/tex]

therefore

The height of the model is 30.5 in
