x/9 = 8/36
x = 9 8/36 [multiplying each side by 9]
x = 2
x/90 = 4.4/12
x = 90 4.4/12 [multiplying each side by 90]
x = 33
Both proportions should be expressed as lemon juice to water, or water to lemon juice. Either way would give a correct answer:
2/7 = j/28 [lemon juice to water]
8 = j [multiplying each side by 28]
7/2 = 28/j [water to lemon juice]
7j = 56 [multiplying each side by 2j]
j = 8 [dividing each side by 7]
The length proportion is 24 in to 32 ft.
The actual house is 24 ft tall.
Let x represent the doll house height, in inches. Then
x/24 = 24/32
x = 24 * 24/32 = 18 inches
