Using proportions, it is found that the length of the rectangle should be of 152 inches.
<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>
A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three. Due to this, relations between variables, either direct or inverse proportional, can be built to find the desired measures in the problem.
His proportion of width-to-length is of 5/8. For this problem, the width is of 95 inches, hence the length is found according to the following<em> rule of three</em>:
5/8 = 95/x
Applying cross multiplication:
5x = 8 x 95
x = 8(95)/5
x = 152 inches.
The length of the rectangle should be of 152 inches.
