Given : A photo is 15 centimeters high and 9 centimeters wide.
Mikael wants to proportionately shrink it so its height is 6 centimeters high.
To Find : How wide would it then be
Solution :
Photo Original height = 15 cm
Photo Original width = 9 cm
Shrinked height = 6 cm
Shrinked width = w cm
Original height / Shrinked height = Original width / Shrinked width
=> 15/ 6 = 9/w
=> 5/2 = 9/w
=> w = 9 * 2/5
=> w = 18/5
=> w = 3.6
it would be 3.6 cm wide
