A rectangle has a length of 3.4 ft. and a width of 5.7 ft. A larger similar rectangle has a length of 17 ft. What is the width of the larger rectangle? (1 point)

Answer 1

The ratio of the lengths of the two rectangles is 17 ft / 3.4 ft = 5.
Therefore, the ratio of the widths of the two rectangles is also 5.
To find the width of the larger rectangle, we multiply the width of the smaller rectangle by 5:
5.7 ft * 5 = 28.5 ft

So, the width of the larger rectangle is 28.5 ft.
