Answer:

12 inches wide.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is reduced to a 1:3 factor. where 1 is the new length and 3 is the old length. We can write a proportion [tex]1:3=4:x[/tex]. Now, if four numbers are in a proportion we can cross-multiply and we get [tex]1x=3\cdot 4 \rightarrow x = 12[/tex].
12 inches, I mean, you just have to take the size and multiply by 3
