is this correct? makes sense to me, but it seems like I am missing something about showing my work
if 3 in = 8 ft
then 6 in = 16 ft
if 3 in = 8 ft
then 6 in = 16 ft
Yay! You are right! It does make sense!! :-)
You could use a proportion to show your work.
3 / 8 = 6 / x
3x = 48
x = 16
3 / 8 = 6 / x
3x = 48
x = 16
