Question 1136182
.
<pre>

Without making any excessive actions, simply divide 2520 inches by 180 to get the model size in inches, since it is obvious what to do.


Or, if you want a formal solution, use the proportion


    {{{1/180}}} = {{{x/2520}}},


and find x, the unknown model length, from this proportion


    x = {{{2520/180}}} = 14 inches.      <U>ANSWER</U>
</pre>

Solved.
