Question

chris used two different regular diamonds is making a quilt the ratio of the side length was 3:4 the side length of smaller diamond measured 6.0 inches what was the side length of the larger diamond

Answer 1

The ratio of the side length is,

`(s)/(l)=(3)/(4)`

The ratio of side smaller diamone to side of larger diamond is always remain constant. So,

`\begin{gathered} (6)/(l)=(3)/(4) \\ l=(6\cdot4)/(3) \\ =8 \end{gathered}`

So length of the larger diamond is 8 inches.
