Respuesta :

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Alright, lets get started.

The original photo size is 4 inches wide and 6 inches tall.

So, the ratio of width and height will be = [tex]\frac{4}{6}=\frac{2}{3}[/tex]

The new enlarged photo will be of the same ratio means 2:3

The width of enlarged photo is given as 12 inches.

Suppose new height of enlarged photo is H, so

[tex]\frac{12}{H}=\frac{2}{3}[/tex]

Cross multiplying

[tex]2H=36[/tex]

Dividing 2 in both sides

[tex]H=18[/tex] inches

So the height of new enlagred photo will be 18 inches.  :   Answer
