Pooja writes the ratio x/3=y/4 to help her increase the size of a two-dimensional shape. If the new value of x is 15 units, what will be the value of y?
First, we need to find the value of y using the ratio x/3 = y/4.
Given x = 15 units, we can substitute this into the equation:
15/3 = y/4
5 = y/4
To solve for y, we need to multiply both sides by 4:
4*5 = y
20 = y
Therefore, the value of y will be 20 units.
