Answered by Ms. Sue
Is the scale model 5 meters? Or is the real truck 5 meters long?

Answered by ashley
scale model is 5 meters
Answered by Ms. Sue
My -- but that's a big model. 15 meters is about 16 feet. I'll bet your bedroom is less than 5 meters long.

Answered by ashley
So do you multiply 1:8 by 5?

Answered by Ms. Sue
No.

Please proofread your problem The truck is probably 5 meters long.
