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? (1 point)
To find the value of y, we can set up a proportion using the given ratio:
x/3 = y/4
Now we can plug in the new value of x:
15/3 = y/4
Simplify the left side of the equation:
5 = y/4
To solve for y, we can multiply both sides by 4:
4*5 = 4*(y/4)
20 = y
Therefore, the value of y will be 20 units.
