Question

You are interested in purchasing a wide-screen tv set at target. on this type of tv, the ratio of the width of the screen to the height of the screen is 16 to 9. if a certain model you are consid- ering has a screen width of 64 inches, what would be the height of this screen?

16/9= 64/x

If they are equal then 16/9 is multiplied by 4/4 to get 64/x. 9 times 4 is 36.

The height should be 36.
