Question

A frame is 6in tall and 8 in wide. What if it was reduced to a width of 4in then how tall will it be

Answer 1

Answer:

  3 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Apparently, we are to assume that the height and width are proportional:

  height/width = (6 in)/(8 in) = (new height)/(4 in)

Multiplying by 4 in will tell us the new height:

  new height = (4 in)(6/8) = 3 in

The reduced frame will be 3 inches tall.
