Amber is 48 inches tall and her friend Lucy is 60 inches tall. In a photograph of them together, Amber is 3 inches tall. Which proportion shows how tall Lucy is in the photograph?

60/3=x/48

48/60=3/x



3/60=48/x



48/60=x/3

Answer :

The answer would be the Last option (D). This because it poses the proportion of 48 in (Amber's height) / 60 in (Lucy's height) and puts it equal to the proportion of x (what is Amber's height in the photo) / 3 (what is Lucy's height in the photo. Hope this helps :)
