Pooja writes the ratio x/3 = y/4 to help her increase the size of a two-dimensional shape. If the new value of x is 15 units, what will be the value of y?(1 point)

Answer 1

To find the value of y, we can use the given ratio x/3 = y/4 and plug in the new value of x which is 15 units.

15/3 = y/4
5 = y/4

Now, to find the value of y, we can multiply both sides of the equation by 4:

5 * 4 = y
20 = y

Therefore, the value of y is 20 units.
