4/18 = 6/x
4x = 108
x = 27 inches
new height if it was originally 6 inches tall and 4 inches wide?
4x = 108
x = 27 inches
The original width of the photo is 4 inches, and it has been enlarged to a width of 18 inches. Therefore, the scale factor of the enlargement can be calculated by dividing the new width by the original width:
Scale factor = New width / Original width = 18 inches / 4 inches = 4.5
This means that the photo has been enlarged by a scale factor of 4.5.
To find the new height of the photo, we can multiply the original height by the scale factor:
New height = Original height * Scale factor = 6 inches * 4.5 = 27 inches
Therefore, the new height of the photo is 27 inches.
