Pooja writes the ratio x over 3 = y over 4 to help her increasethe size of a two - dimensional shape.if the new value of x is 15 units, what will be the value of y.
Using cross-multiplication, we can write:
x/3 = y/4
Multiplying both sides by 3, we get:
x = 3y/4
Substituting x = 15, we have:
15 = 3y/4
Multiplying both sides by 4, we get:
60 = 3y
Dividing both sides by 3, we get:
y = 20
Therefore, if the new value of x is 15 units, the value of y will be 20 units.
