Question

Help! I cannot figure out how to do this and my teacher does not explain things very well! The question is- An image is 16 in. You want to make a copy that is similar. Its longer side will be 38 in. The copy costs $.60 per square inch, Estimate the copy's total cost.
*What is the approximate length of the shorter side of the copy?
*What is the approximate are of the copy?

P.S. Please explain how you got the answer!

Answer 1
