let x = new width

18.6/1.5 = 6.2/x
cross multiply and solve for x

18.6x = 6.2 * 1.5
18.6x = 9.3

Divide both sides by 18.6
18.6x/18.6 = 9.3/18.6

Simplify
x =0.5

So when height = 6.2, width = 0.5

A frame is 18.6 in tall and 1.5 in wide. if it is reduced to a height of 6.2 in, then how wide will it be?
