    K guys u rly need to learn this stuff instead of relying on google for answers, it's not hard, I promise.

    Ratio is 5:4

    Which is Length: Width.

    We're told the Length (in Inches) is 60.

    So ratio = 60:?

    A Ratio is just a simplified version of the actual numbers, k?

    So The length 'scale', if you like, will be 60/5. = 12.

    That means one 'unit' of Ratio stuff = 12.

    So then you work out the Width, by doing the Ratio number [4] x The Ratio 'scale' [12].

    4 x 12 = 48! It's 48 Inches.
