Question

A model of a ship is made to a scale of 1:500. Find: The volume of the model when the volume of the ship is 1km

Sum

Solution

Scale  = 1:500
Volume of the ship = 1km3 

`"volume(model)"/"volume(ship)"` = Scale

`"volume(model)"/(1 xx (1000)^3) = (1)/(500)^3`

Volume(model) = `(1000000000)/(125000000)`
Volume(model) = 8m3.
