Answer:

A. 11.33

Explanation:

In the blue rectangle, the ratio of the height to the width is 21/34.

In the red rectangle, the ratio of the height to the width is 7/w.

We are told the ratios are equal, so we set the ratios equal and solve for w.

7/w = 21/34

Cross multiply.

21w = 7 * 34

21w = 238

Divide both sides by 21.

w = 238/21

w = 11.333...
