Answer:

Length of mammoth's tusk in poster = 15.33

Step-by-step explanation:

Actual height of mammoth = 10 feet 5 inches = 126 inches

Height on the poster of mammoth = 14 inches

Actual length of mammoth's tusk = 11.5 feet = 138 inches

Length of mammoth's tusk in poster = x

126 : 14 :: 138 : x

Product of mean = product of extremes

x * 126 = 14 * 138

$x = \frac{14*138}{126}$

x = 15.33
