Part (A)
(1 cm)/(20 cm) = (6 cm)/(x cm)
1/20 = 6/x
1*x = 20*6
x = 120
120 cm = 120/100 = 1.2 m
Answer: 1.2 m
=========================================================
Part (B)
2.2 m = 2.2*100 = 220 cm
(1 cm)/(20 cm) = (x cm)/(220 cm)
1/20 = x/220
1*220 = 20*x
20x = 220
x = 220/20
x = 11
Answer: 11 cm
