How do I find the weight of a Matchbox car, in ounces, using the weight of the real car, which is 4,750, and the scale of the car is 1/63 model of the real thing?
If the weights are in the same proportion as their scale:
Matchbox/Real ---> 1/63 = x/4750
Cross multiplying ---> 63·x = 1·4750
63x = 4750
x = 4750/63 = 75.4 oz (very unrealistic)
