Answer:

16 in × 20 in

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. Finding the % of the picture that can fit in 16×20 frame

Area of picture= length by width

                         =4*6=24 in²

Area of frame=Length by width

                      =16*20=320 in²

% of the picture in the frame will be

                        (24/320) * 100% =7.5%

     2. Finding the % of the picture that can fit in 18 × 24 frame

Area of picture=24 in²

Area of frame =Length by width

                       =18*24=432 in²

% of the picture in the frame will be;

                        (24/432)*100%=5.6%

The frame 16 by 20 in will keep 7.5% of the original picture

The frame 18 by 24 in will keep 5.6% of the original picture

Hence you should use the frame  of 16 by 20 in because it will keep more of the original picture.

Solve the proportion 40/z+1 = 15/6
vovangra [49]

Answer:

<h2>z = 15</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{40}{z + 1}  =  \frac{15}{6}  \\

<u>Cross multiply </u>

That's

15(z + 1) = 40(6) \\ 15z + 15 = 240

<u>Send 15 to the right side of the equation</u>

15z = 240 - 15 \\ 15z = 225

Divide both sides by 15

\frac{15z}{15}  =  \frac{225}{15}  \\

We have the final answer as

<h3>z = 15</h3>

Hope this helps you
