A 1-inch rise for a 16-inch run makes it easier for the wheelchair rider to ascend a ramp. How long must a ramp be to easily accommodate a 24-inch rise to the door?

Measurement is the process of assigning numbers to physical quantities and phenomena.

If a 1-inch rise for a 16-inch run makes it easier for the wheelchair rider, this can be expressed as:

1inch rise = 16-inch run

In order to determine how long must a ramp be to easily accommodate a 24-inch rise to the door, we can write:

24in rise = x

Divide both expressions:

Cross multiply:

Hence the ramp must be 384inches long in order to easily accommodate a 24-inch rise to the door.

 The ramp must be 32 feet long.  In inches, 384.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each 16 inches of run, there is one inch of rise. To get 24 inches of rise, multiply 16 by 24 to get 384 inches. To convert to a more useful measurement, convert to feet.  12 inches per foot.  384/12 = 32

the factors of 24 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12 and 24. hope this ! mark brainliest! you v much! : )
