Delisa is designing a website that will be viewable on both computers and mobile devices, so the website as it is seen on a mobile device is proportional to the website as it is seen on a computer. The diagonal of Delisa's computer monitor is 21 inches, and the diagonal of Delisa's tablet is 9.3 inches. If an image is 21 centimeters wide on the website when it's displayed on Delisa's computer, how wide should the image be on the tablet? Round to the nearest tenth of a millimeter, if necessary.

do you do 21*9.3

geerky42 (geerky42):

Use proportional: \(\dfrac{21 cm ~diagonal }{9.3cm~diagonal }=\dfrac{21cm~width}{x}\)

geerky42 (geerky42):

don't forgot to convert your answer from cm to mm

OpenStudy (samara8954):

so the answer is 474.2
