Solving Proportions

Instructions:[br][list=1][*]Write a ratio comparing the width to the height of the photo.[/*][*]Write a ratio comparing the width to the height of this photo if is enlarged to have a width of 6 units. Use "h" to represent the height of the enlarged photo in your ratio.[/*][*]Write a proportion by setting the two ratios = to each other. You should write 2 : 4 = 6 : h.[/*][*]Solve your proportion to find the value of h.[/*][*]Check your answer by dragging the slider until the width of the enlarged photo is 6 units. [/*][*]Use this process to predict the height of the enlarged photo when the width is 4 units.[/*][*]Use this process to predict the height of the enlarged photo when the width is 7 units.[/*][/list]
