A scale model of the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco has a main span that is 213 centimeters long. If the main span of the bridge is 4,260 feet long, what is the scale of the model?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Just divide 213cm/4260ft and you get cm/ft. You get 0.05cm of scale per 1ft in the real world, or you can multiply it by 20cm/20ft to get 1cm on the scale = 20 ft in real life.
