Help!!!
The actual diameter of Uranus is 31,250 miles. In a scale drawing of the solar system, the diameter of Uranus is
125 centimeters.
What scale was used to make the model?
1 centimeter = 500 miles
1 centimeter = 250 miles
1 centimeter = 125 miles
1 centimeter = 175 miles

Sagot :

Al3x45idn

[tex]31250 \div 500 = 62.5[/tex]

[tex]31250 \div 250 = 125[/tex]

[tex]31250 \div 125 = 250[/tex]

[tex]31250 \div 175 = 178.5[/tex]

The model should be scaled so that 1 centimeter equals 250 miles.

The scale that need to be used to make the model is 1 centimeter equals 250 miles.

Calculation of the scale:

Since The actual diameter of Uranus is 31,250 miles. In a scale drawing of the solar system, the diameter of Uranus is 125 centimeters.

So, the scale should be

[tex]= 31250 \div 125[/tex]

= 250 miles

Hence, The scale that need to be used to make the model is 1 centimeter equals 250 miles.
