Pooja writes the ratio ×/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?
To find the value of y, we can first find the value of x using the given ratio.
Given, x/3 = y/4
Substitute the new value of x as 15 units:
15/3 = y/4
5 = y/4
Now, cross multiply to solve for y:
5*4 = y
y = 20
Therefore, the value of y will be 20 units.
