A video screen is 16 in. by 12 in. tall. What is the width of the largest complete image possible for a photograph that is 8 in. wide by 10 in. tall. I don't understand?

Answer :

16 inches, and 10 inches tall.

So because, they are asking the largest image for the photograph,
so 8 * 2 = 16
and 10 * 2 = 20 but 20 can't go into 12.

So the answer?
16 inches and 10 inches tall.

The area of the largest complete image possible for the photograph that is 8in by 10in tall is 2.4in.

What is the explanation for the above?

Note that it is required to obtain the largest complete image possible hence you are looking for how many times the image can fit into the larger screen.



Step 1 - Divide the Length of the Screen by the length of the  image

→ 16/8 = 2


Step 2 - Divide the Width of the Screen by the width of the  image

→ 12/20

= 1.2

Step 3 - Multiply results from Step 1 and Step 2 (Area)

→ 2 * 1.2

= 2.4in.
