Answer:

15 inches

Explanation:

We have that,

Length of the photo = 4 inches and Width of the photo = 6 inches

Also, the width of the image on the calendar = 10 inches

Let, the length on the image of the calendar = x inches.

Since, the ratio of the photo and its image will remain same, we get,


(4)/(6)=(10)/(x)

i.e.
x=(60)/(4)

i.e. x = 15

Hence, the length of the image of the photo on the calendar is 15 inches.
