Rectangle ABCD is similar to rectangle QRST. The width of ABCD is 5 inches and the length is 8 inches. If the length of QRST is 12 inches, what is the width of QRST?

Respuesta :

Answer: 7.5

Form your proportion. Let x be the width of QRST.

Length of ABCD      Length of QRST
-----------------------  =  ------------------------- 
Width of ABCD         Width of QRST

8/5 = 12/x

Solve for x by cross-multiplying.
(8)(x) = (12)(5)
8x = 60
x = 7.5
