Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

The length can be found by setting up a proportion.  If the width is reduced by some ratio, then the length will share the same ratio.

3 / 8 =  x / 10                    Multiply both sides by 10.

3 * 10 / 8 = x                     Multiply first

30/8 = x                            Divide next. You don't need to do it in this order.

3 6/8                                 Simplify

3 3/4                                 Give another choice

3.75                                

The length = 3.75 inches

If none of these are correct, please leave a note with your choices.
