The length of the Titanic was 882 feet. Porter's history class is building a model of the Titanic. The model is 1/100 of the actual length of the ship. How long is the model?

8.82 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Explanation:

Let's set up the ratio. We know that the actual length of the ship was 882 feet and we want to know how long the model will be. We also have a ratio of 1 model length to every 100 actual length. So we can write this as:

Model length

Ship length

=

1 Model length

100 actual length

And we can drop in some numbers (I'll also put in the variable

x

to represent the length of the ship model):

x

882

=

1

100

Let's cross multiply to solve for x:

100

x

=

882

x

=

8.82
