Each wall measures about 65 feet tall and 80 feet wide. If Os Gemeos did a sketch on paper that was 8 inches tall for one wall, how wide would their sketch have to be to stay in proportion?

Given :

Wall measures about 65 feet tall and 80 feet wide.

To Find :

If Os Gemeos did a sketch on paper that was 8 inches tall for one wall, how wide would their sketch have to be to stay in proportion.

Solution :

Let, width of sketch is x.

Since, they are in proportion :

Therefore, width of sketch should be 11.23 feet.

Hence, this is the required solution.

step-by-step explanation:

a=24; b=12

step-by-step explanation:

a/b=2: 1

a=2b

36/(1+2)=12

b=12

a=24
