You can put this solution on YOUR website! An HO scale model railroad engine is 6 inches long.
If the HO scale is 1 to 87, how long is a real caboose, in inches? and in feet?
---------------------------------------------------------
x/6" = 87/1
x = 522" (length of caboose in inches)
522/12 = 43.5 ft (length of the caboose in feet)
