Answer:

The wall is 90 meters wide.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. set up and solve a proportion to find the value of w like this:

1cm=6cm

15m=wm

2. cancel out the like units on both sides of the equation

1=6

15=w

3. Equate the cross products, and then solve for w:

1*w=15*6

w=90                                                                                                                                          The actual width of the wall is 90 meters.
