How do I answer this word math problem

Question

At 3 p.m., Coretta's shadow is
1.03 meters long. Her height is 1.46 meters. At the same time, a tree's shadow is 6.16
meters long. How tall is the tree?

(Round answer to the nearest hundredth.)

Answer 1

Irma, again, set it up as a ratio…. Coretta's shadow/ height = tree's shadow/height

1.03m/1.46m = 6.16/x meters  cross multiply   1.03 * x = 1.46 * 6.16 , then solve for x.  Let me know if you have difficulty solving for the unknown.
