Question

A picture of a tree is 4cm wide and 5cm. If the actual WIDTH of the tree is 6 metres, what is its height?

Answer 1

Answer:

Actual height $=7.5 metres$

Step-by-step explanation:

A picture is supposed to maintain the Aspect ratio, i.e. Width:Length

Aspect ratio of the picture is 4:5

Let's assume that, the actual height is h:

then, $\frac{4}{5}$ $=\frac{6}{h}$

∴ 4h = 30

∴ h $=\frac{30}{4}$ $=7.5 metres$
