\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "I believe everybody agree that the photo was reduced proportionally.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So, use the proportion\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"8%2F10\" = \"3%2Fx\".\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Now you can find the unknown length x of the reduced photo from the proportion as x = \"%2810%2A3%29%2F8\" = \"30%2F8\" = \"3\"\"3%2F4\" in.\r
