To find the length of Edna's picture, we need to multiply the height by the ratio of the length to height.
Height of the picture = 2 1/4 inches
Length-to-height ratio = 4 3/5
Convert the height to an improper fraction:
2 1/4 = 9/4
Multiply the height by the ratio to find the length:
Length = (9/4) * (23/5)
Length = 207/20
Length = 10 7/20 inches
Therefore, Edna's picture is 10 7/20 inches long.
Edna took a panoramic picture that is 2 1/4
inches tall. The picture is 4 3/5
times as long as it is tall. How long is Edna's picture?
