If you make the measurements into proportions you can solve it.
4/5=120/x where x equals how long the mural is. cross multiply to get 600=4x and divide both sides by 4
so the mural is 150 inches long.

Answer:

The mural is 150 inches long

Step-by-step explanation:

We can turn this given measurements in the problem into porportions to find out the new wide that we need like this:

The relationship between the wide of the photograph and the wide of the mural can be written in a fraction like this:

\frac{4}{120}

The relationship between the length of the photograph and the length of the mural can be written in a fraction like this:

\frac{5}{x}

where x is the length of the mural.

both ratios are the same because we maintian the proportion so we can put them like this:

\frac{4}{120}=\frac{5}{x}

we solve for x

x=\frac{5*120}{4}=150

The mural is 150 inches long
