Question 1207187: rauls grandfather collects models of ships such as bluenose. the model measures 120 mm in leanght AND THE Scale is 1:470. calculate the length of the actual sailing hsips to the nearest tenth of a meter Answer by ikleyn(52879) (Show Source):
Multiply 120 mm by 470: 470 * 120 mm = 56400 mm.
Convert the value from millimeters to meters by dividing by 1000
56400 mm : 1000 = 56.4 m.
Round it to the closest meter using the rules of rounding and get the
ANSWER. The length of the real ship is about 56 meters.
