The picture is originally 11 inches wide by 8.5
inches tall. It gets scaled down to a new width of 7 inches. We need to find the new height. To do this, we write a proportion:
8.5/11=x/7
Cross multiply:
11x = 59.5
Divide:
X = 5.41
The size of the picture is 5.41" x7", but the size of the frame is 5" x7". The part of the picture's area that is included in the frame is:
(5 × 7) / (5.41 × 7)
= 5/ 5.41
= 0.924
92.4% of the picture is inside the frame.
