Question

What is the missing side 7.5 in and x

Answer 1

18

Explanation:

if it is a ratio like 2.5:6 the the answer will be 18 because if you do 2.5 over 7.5 that comes out to a total of 0.33 and thats rounded so if you do 6 over .33 then the answer will be 18

Answer 2

The missing side is 18 inches

Explanation:

Since in the smaller rectangle the sides are 2.5in x 6in and one side for the larger rectangle is given, you can make an equation.

`(2.5)/(6)=(7.5)/(x)`

Then you can cross multiply.

2.5x=45

Divide by 2.5 on both sides.

x= 18
