Question

Jason considered two similar televisions at a local electronics store. The generic version was based on the brand name and was three eighths the size of the brand name. If the generic television set is 12 inches by 24 inches, what are the dimensions of the brand name television

Answer 1

Answer:

32 inches by 64 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the generic television is $\frac{3}{8}$ the size of the brand name.

Then the brand name is $\frac{8}{3}$ the size of the generic, thus

$\frac{8}{3}$ × 12 = 32

$\frac{8}{3}$ × 24 = 64

Thus dimensions are 32 inches by 64 inches

Answer 2

Answer:

The dimensions are 32 inches by 64 inches
