The eiffel tower is 984 feet. a model of the tower is 24 inches tall. what is the ratio of the height of the model to the height of the actual eiffel tower?

The ratio is

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that

1 ft=12 in

The Eiffel Tower is 984 feet

Convert to inches

984 ft=984*12=11,808 in

Find the ratio of the height of the model to the height of the actual Eiffel Tower

The height of the model is 24 in

The height of the actual Eiffel Tower is 11,808 in

the ratio is equal to

That means----> The height of the actual Eiffel Tower is 492 times greater than the height of the model

the degrees would remain the same ( the number to the left of the decimal point.

the multiply the decimal by 60 to get the minutes and use the numbers to the left of the decimal point.

then multiply the decimal portion of that by 60 for the seconds and round off as needed.

39 .956652

the 39 remains the degrees.

the minutes = 0.956652 x 60 = 57.39912

the minutes = 57

the seconds = 0.39912 x 60 = 23.95 = 24 ( rounded to nearest tenth)

so 39.956652 = 39 degrees, 57 minutes and 24 seconds

-75.159809

the -75 remains the degrees

the minutes = 0.159809 x 60 = 9.58854

the minutes = 9

the seconds = 0.58854 x 60 = 35.31, rounded to nearest tenth = 35.3 seconds

so -75.159809 = -75 degrees, 9 minutes and 35.3 seconds.

the first coordinate is north or south, since it it positive it is north.

the second number is east or west, because it is negative it is west.

39 degrees, 57 minutes and 24 seconds n

-75 degrees, 9 minutes and 35.3 seconds w
