In the puzzle 1 is equivalent to 415 in reality.

If you have 28.5 in tall, you need to multiply by 415

( 28.5 in ) ( 415 ) = 11827.5 in 

The heigh of the actual eiffel tower is: 11827.5 in

1 foot = 12 in.

11827.5 in / 12 in = 985.625 ft   

The heigh of the actual eiffel tower is: 986 ft

Answer:

986 ft

I just took the quiz and 986 ft is 100% the correct answer!

Step-by-step explanation:

1 inch in the puzzle is equivalent to 415 inches in reality.

If the puzzle is 28.5 tall, you need to multiply it by 415

in other words:

( 28.5 in ) ( 415 ) = 11827.5 in 

Now we know that the height of the actual Eiffel tower is 11827.5 inches

1 foot = 12 in.

11827.5 in / 12 in = 985.625 ft   

The heigh of the actual eiffel tower is: 986 ft
