An 8 ft tall tent standing next to a man casts a 16 ft shadow. If the man is 6 ft tall, then how long is his shadow?

The man's shadow is 12 feet long.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are given that an 8 foot tall tent casts a 16 foot shadow, and we are asked the calculate the length of the shadow a 6 foot tall man casts.

To solve this problem, find the relationship between 8 and 16- 16 is twice as much as 8, as 8 x 2 = 16.

From this we have: "The shadow of an object is twice as long as the object."

We can use this to calculate the length of the shadow for a 6 foot tall man.  Since the height of the man is 6 feet, the length of his shadow would be 12 feet.

Let me know if this helps!
