Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

Michelle is having a poster printed from a picture that is 4 inches wide by 6 inches tall.

The enlarged poster is 20 inches wide and 30 inches tall.

20=4×5

i.e. width of enlarged picture=5×width of actual picture

30=6×5

i.e. height of enlarged picture=5×height of actual picture

Hence, proportion that can be used to represent the picture sizes is:

picture:enlarged picture = 1:5
