I just wanted to see if that was right

OpenStudy (phi):

the scale 1:72 means if the model has a length (of say the wing) of 1 inch, then the real airplane is 72 times bigger in other words, you multiply the models number by 72 Did you do that ?

OpenStudy (benlindquist):

Oh ok, that helped

OpenStudy (phi):

in other words, you do 7.5 inches * 72 remember that number is in inches, but your answer is in feet so you have to do another step and change inches to feet

OpenStudy (benlindquist):

Its 45 feet

OpenStudy (phi):

yes
