To find the ratio of the height of the model to the actual height of the Empire State Building, we need to convert the measurements to the same units.
1 foot is equal to 12 inches, so the actual height of the Empire State Building is 1,168 feet * 12 inches = 14,016 inches.
The ratio of the height of the model to the actual height of the Empire State Building is:
24 inches (height of model) / 14,016 inches (height of Empire State Building) = 1/584
Therefore, the ratio of the height of the model to the height of the actual Empire State Building is 1:584.
