Step-by-step explanation:
Let us plan out our steps, and solve for each:
1. Given the information, let us create a proportionality as such:
1 = 14 ⇒ x - width of the actual item
5 x
2. Now let us cross multiply, and solve through simple algebra for x:
14 * 5= x,
x = 70 centimeters of the width of the actual item
