If the length of the reduction is 6 inches ,what is the width? • First you have to rewrite the problem by putting the 12 over the 6 and 10 over n to find the reduction of the width. • After you multiply 6 times 10 that gives you 60 times 12n then you divide 60 by 12 that gives you 5 so n=5 is the final answer.
