Answer:

The answers A

Step-by-step explanation:

Use ratios such that x1/y1= x2/y2

Need to find x2

So it works much easier if you use x as the numerator, giving 15/12=x/21

Multiply both sides by 21 and we have 21 x 15/12=x x 21/21

and 21/21=1 giving: x=21 x 15/12= 26 1/4

and in decimal form is 26.25
