Hi dear,
If the lenght is 90cm,
and the ratio of lenght to width to height is 8:5:7
Then,
sum ratio =20
Therefore,
The width =(90/20)*5
=22.5cm
Also,
Height =(90/20)*7
=31.5cm
The difference between the height and width =(31.5-22.5)cm
=9cm
convert the above in metre
98cm=(9/100)m
=0.09m
HOPE THIS HELPS;
Best regards,
