Jasmine is reducing the height of the yearbook picture from 5 inches to 2 inches and we are trying to find the percentage of the original height that is the new height.
The original height was 5 inches and the new height is 2 inches.
new/original = 2/5
2÷5 = 0.4
0.4 = 40%
Thus, the new height is 40% of the original height.
