Answer:

4 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

The height of a rectangle is reduced by Shawna to a size of 2 inches.

The original width of the rectangle was 24 inches and the height was 12 inches.

If the ratio of width to height remains the same, then we can find the new width.

If the new width is x inches then, we can write

[tex]\frac{x}{2} = \frac{24}{12}[/tex]

⇒ x = 4 inches. (Answer)

the new width is 14

original height 12

12-2= 10 (the amount that was taken away to get the new height)

24- 10= 14 ( the new width)
