Answer:

7.5 inches

Explanation:

Smaller length = 4 inches

Smaller width = 3 inches

Larger length = 10 inches

Larger width = x

If both rectangles are similar, then the ratio between both lengths and both widths is the same. Therefore, the value of "x" is:


(x)/(3)=(10)/(4)\\ x=2.5*3\\x=7.5\ in

The large photo is 7.5 inches wide.
