A model lighthouse uses a scale of 1/4 inch = 5 feet. The height of the model lighthouse is

6 3/8 inches

What is the height of the actual lighthouse?

127 1/2 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

A model lighthouse uses a scale of 1/4 inch = 5 feet.

This means that 1/4 inch on the model represents 5 feet in actual life.

The height of the model lighthouse is  6 3/8 inches i.e. 51/8 inches.

The height of the actual lighthouse is:

1/4 inch = 5 feet

51/8 inches = x

Cross-multiply:

51/8 * 5 = 1/4 * x

=> x = 51/8 * 4 * 5

x = 127 1/2 feet

The height of the actual lighthouse is 127 1/2 feet.
