Ratio and proportaion

assuming the shadow to the actual height is constant

shadow:actual height=12ft:40ft=12/40=3/10=3ft:10ft

so
3ft:10ft=?:21ft
solve
3ft/10ft=?/21ft
times both sides by 21ft
63ft/10=?
6.3ft=?

the shadow is 6.3ft

Answer:

  7 7/8

Step-by-step explanation:

There are several ways to get there.

  2.25×3.5 = 7.875 = 7 7/8

  (2 1/4)(3 1/2) = (9/4)(7/2) = 63/8 = 7 7/8

  (2 1/4)(3.5) = 2(3.5) +(1/4)(3.5) = 7 + (2·3.5)/(2·4) = 7 +7/8 = 7 7/8

A typical graphing calculator will let you enter this problem directly, giving you a result either as a decimal, improper fraction, or a mixed number.
