Suppose you receive a postcard from a good friend with a picture of the golden gate bridge in san francisco. the postcard is 3.5 inches high and 5.5 inches wide. the fine print on the postcard states that the scale of the picture is 1: 19,600. based on the scale, what's the actual length of the golden gate bridge?

Actual length of the Bridge = 8983.33 feet.
