Question

Which of the following is the closest in size to a Baltimore Oriole ?

• A. A foot ruler
• B. A little less than a half-scale
• C. A little more than a half-scale
• D. The size of a half-scale

Answer 1

Answer:

C. A little more than a half-scale

A Baltimore Oriole is about 7 inches in length. If we imagine a scale where 1 unit represents 1 inch, then a half-scale would be 3.5 inches. Since a Baltimore Oriole is a little larger than 3.5 inches, it would be closer in size to "a little more than a half-scale."
