Question
The dimensions of a buiIding are 50 m Iong, 40m wide and 70m high. A model of the same building is made with a scale factor of 1: 500. Find the dimensions of the model.
Solution
Scale= 1 : 500
1 cm represents 500 cm
`500/100` = 5 m
1 cm represents 5 m
Lengthof model = `50/5` = 10 cm
Breadth of model = `40/5` = 8 cm
Height of model = `70/5` = 14 cm
