Question 1)

Change 75 ft into inches

1 foot = 12 inches

75 foot = 900 inches

900 / 10 = 90

Therefore scale is 1:90
Giving the answer B

2)

Divide the actual length by the scale.

45/160 = 0.28125 feet

Since the available choices are in inches, convert from feet to inches

(45/160)*12 = 3.375 inches

Giving the Answer C

3)

298,000,000 * 0.067 (Convert the 6.7% into a decimal by dividing by 100)

= 19,966,000

Answer is C
