Question

2) You work in the tech field. Your boss has asked that you and your team design a new style phone with a 7" screen display. What are the dimensions of the phone if the aspect ratio is 16:9?

Answer 1

Answer:

dimensions of the phone are 7 inches x 12.44 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the aspect ratio of a display device is a proportional relationship between the width and the height of the display.

That is;

Aspect ratio = height/width

Now, we are given;

Aspect ratio = 16:9 or 16/9

Width = 7" = 177.8 mm

Thus;

16/9 = height/177.8

Multiply both sides by 177.8 to give;

Height = (16 × 177.8)/9

Height = 316.089 mm

Converting 316.089 mm to inches gives us 12.44 inches.

Thus, dimensions of the phone are 7 inches x 12.44 inches
