Rewrite the length as an improper fraction.
21 7/8 = 175/8
Write the quantity of stamps as a fraction: 25/1
Divide length by number of stamps:
175/8 / 25/1
When dividing by a fraction change the sign to multiplication and flip the second fraction over:
175/8 x 1/25.
Now multiply numerators and then denominators:
(175 x1) / (8x 25) = 175/200
Simplify to 7/8
Each stamp is 7/8 inches long
3.5 + 2 = 2x - 10
5.5 = 2x -10
+10 +10

15.5 = 2x

<h2><u>Direct answer</u> :</h2>
Width of the enlarged photograph = 14 cm
<h2><u>Steps to derive the correct answer</u> :</h2>
Length of a small photograph = 6 cm
Width of a small photograph = 4 cm
Length of the photograph when enlarged = 21 cm
Let the width of the photograph when enlarged be x.
Which means :






Thus, the value of x = 14
Therefore, the width of the enlarged photograph = <u>14 cm</u>
