Answer 1

Clair, since there isn't an attached picture, we don't know some info

Explanation:

but here is how you can figure this out....

they tell use to give 6 inches on each side of the door, so the total width of the logo can be 2 feet wide. Because the door is 3 feet wide. Now use that to find the height. find the height to width ratio of the logo, so if the logo is 4 feet wide and 6 feet tall it's 6/4 or 1.5 ratio, use that and multiply by the 2 that we know the width can be on the door. so 2*1.5 = 3. the height of the logo would be 3 feet tall and 2 feet wide on the door. see?

just find the ratio of the logo, and multiply that by 2 :) to find the height on the door, got it?
