How wide is the model?

Answers

GPT 3.5
To find the width of the model, we first need to convert the actual width of the satellite to centimeters to match the scale.

18 meters * 100 centimeters/meter = 1800 centimeters

Now we can use the scale to find the width of the model:

1 centimeter on the model represents 3 meters in real life

1800 centimeters / 3 meters = 600 centimeters

Therefore, the width of the model is 600 centimeters.
