Question

in a town an icecream parlour has displayed an ice cream sculpture of height 360 cm. The parlour claims that these ice creams and sculpture are in the scale 1:30.What is the height of ice creams served

Answer 1

the ratio of heights is 1:30 , therefore the height of giant sculpture = height of 30 ice creams
therefore height of one ice cream = height of sculpture/30 = 360/30 =12cm

Answer 2

Answer:

12 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The parlor claims that these ice creams and sculpture are in the scale 1:30.

Let the height of ice cream be x

So, Height of sculpture = 30x

An ice cream parlor has displayed an ice cream sculpture of height 360 cm.

So,$30x = 360$

$x=\frac{360}{30}$

x= 12

Hence the height of ice creams served is 12 cm
