Consider the enlargement of the parallelogram.

Set up a proportion to solve for the missing measure of the original parallelogram.

Which side of the original parallelogram corresponds to the 6 ft side of the enlarged parallelogram? 

A.x ft B.1/3ft C.8ft D.6ft

What is the second step in solving the proportion?

A. Add the ratios B.Subtract the ratios C.Cross multiply D.Cross divide

What is the value of the missing measure?

A.1/4 B.1/2 C.4 D.16

Answer 1

x/(1/3) = 6/8

cross multiply

8x = 6(1/3) =2

divide by 8

x = 2/8 = 1/4 foot

or x/6 = (1/3)/8, another ratio that works

cross multiply

8x = 6(1/3) = 2

x = 2/8 = 1/4 foot = 3 inches
