Answer 1

The width of the rectangle would be 6 times the first rectangle and the length would be 8 times the first rectangle.

Explanation:

Given:

Two rectangles are proportional.

Length and width of 1 rectangle = 6 : 8

Dimensions of the other rectangle = ?

Let length and width of the other rectangle be x : y

According to the question:

$\frac{6}{8} :\frac{x}{y}$

$\frac{6}{8} X \frac{y}{x}$

So, the width of the rectangle would be 6 times the first rectangle and the length would be 8 times the first rectangle.
