Question
In a town, an ice cream parlour has displayed an ice cream sculpture of height 360 cm. The parlour claims that these ice creams and the sculpture are in the scale 1 : 30. What is the height of the ice creams served?
Solution
Given, Height of ice-cream sculpture = 360 cm
Scale used for ice-cream and sculpture = 1 : 30
The height of the ice-cream served = Scale × Actual size ...`[∵ "Scale" = "Size drawn"/"Actual size"]`
= `(1 xx 360)/30`
= 12 cm
Hence, the height of that ice-cream served is 12 cm.
