Let's see how many pounds can a one foot I-beam handle. If a 15 feet I-beam can handle 2000 pounds, then a one foot I-beam can handle 1/15 of that weight.

2000 * \frac{1}{15} = 133 1/3

So, for every extra foot, it can handle an additional 133 1/3 pounds.

Now we want to find out how many pounds a 10 feet I-beam can handle. 

10 * \frac{400}{3} = 4000/3 or 1333 1/3 pounds

So, a 10 feet I-beam can handle 1333 1/3 pounds.

dezoksy [38]

Answer:

24 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The photo was 6 cm wide, and was made into 18 cm wide. Divide 18 with 6:

18/6 = 3

To solve for the length enlargement, multiply 3 with the length, or 8 cm:

8 x 3 = 24

24 cm is the length of the enlargement.
