Rectangle A and rectangle B are similar. Rectangle A has a width of 5cm and length of 8cm. Rectangle B has a width of 10cm. What is the length of rectangle B?

(with explanation please)

Respuesta :

The answer is 16.

Since the rectangles are similar, the ratio of their height and width will be the same

The width of rectangle B is 10, which is 2 x the width of rectangle A

So the length will also be 2 x the length of A

2 x 8 is 16
