Ok, this is a ratio problem; the ratio of the length to width is constant (and therefore equal): 4 /6 = 15 / x Now, with a ratio, we may do any allowable algebra operation: cross-multiply, invert both sides, multiply or divide both sides by the same amount, etc. Let's cross-multiply: 4x = (15)(6) x = 90/4<span> x = 22.5 in. </span>
