To find the length of the model in centimeters, you can use the scale ratio.
Given that the scale is 1 cm = 8 m, we can set up the following equation:
\[
\text{Model length (cm)} = \frac{\text{Actual length (m)}}{\text{Scale (m per cm)}}
\]
Now, plug in the values:
\[
\text{Model length (cm)} = \frac{40 \text{ m}}{8 \text{ m/cm}} = 5 \text{ cm}
\]
Thus, the model is **5 cm long**.
