    For this case what we can do to represent this problem is the following rule of three:

    25 feet - - - > 10 inches

    450 feet - - - > x

    Clearing the value of x we have:

    x = (450/25) * (10)

    x = 180 inches.

    Now, let's convert this value to feet:

    x = 180 * (1/12) = 15 feet

    Answer:

    Ella's model is 15 feet tall
