Step-by-step explanation:

Pam and Erin want the gardens to be proportional.

<em>proprtional</em><em>-</em><em> </em><em>equal</em><em> </em>

Pams garden has a length of 16 and width of 12. To find the area of Pam's garden multiply the length by the width.

<em>16</em><em>×</em><em>12</em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>192</em><em> </em>

Now that we know the area of Pam's garden, we can set up and equation for Erin's garden. Since they have to be equal we know that Erin's garden should equal 192. Thus we solve for the length by dividing the width from the total.

<em>192</em><em>÷</em><em>21</em><em>=</em><em>9.14</em>
