<h3>What is proportion?</h3>

Proportion can be defined as the mathematical comparison of two numbers.

These numbers could be numbers, elements, set or people

From the information given, we have that;

  • The globe is 3 feet and casts a shadow of 8ft
  • The woman cast a shadow of 16ft and is x feet tall

So,

if the globe is 3 foot tall and casts a shadow of 8ft

Then the woman is x foot tall to cast a shadow of 16ft

cross multiply

8x = 24

Make 'x' the subject

x = 48/ 8

x = 6 foot

Thus, the woman is 6 foot tall
