A photocopy was made of Julie’s watercolor painting the photocopy resize the paining so that it measured 4 inches wide by 7 inches long if the actual paining is 16 inches wide what is it swing oh my God shut up all in one hit the window order it must be gone be really cold and I didn’t know what it was I didn’t see him come all over there I’ll my gosh I didn’t know what it was either oh my A photocopy was made of Julie’s watercolor painting the photocopy resize the paining so that it measured 4 inches wide by 7 inches long if the actual paining is 16 inches wide what is

To find the change in size of Julie's watercolor painting, we can use the concept of proportions.

Let's set up a proportion to solve for the new length of the painting:

New width / actual width = new length / actual length

We are given that the new width is 4 inches, the actual width is 16 inches, and the new length is 7 inches. We need to find the actual length.

Let's substitute the given values into the proportion:

4 / 16 = 7 / actual length

Now we can cross-multiply:

4 * actual length = 16 * 7

Simplifying:

4 * actual length = 112

Dividing both sides by 4:

actual length = 112 / 4

actual length = 28 inches

Therefore, the actual length of Julie's watercolor painting is 28 inches.

To find out the size of the painting after the photocopy, you need to use proportions.

First, let's set up the proportion:

(actual painting width) / (actual painting length) = (photocopy width) / (photocopy length)

Substituting the values given:

16 inches / unknown length = 4 inches / 7 inches

To solve for the unknown length, cross multiply:

16 inches * 7 inches = unknown length * 4 inches

112 inches² = 4 inches * unknown length

Now, divide both sides of the equation by 4 inches:

(112 inches²) / 4 inches = unknown length

Simplifying the equation:

28 inches = unknown length

Therefore, the actual painting length is 28 inches.
