Two pillars are standing side-by-side. One pillar, which is 6 feets tall, casts a shadow that is 12 feets long. The other pillar is 4 feets tall. Compute, in feets, the length of the shadow that
the shorter pillar casts.	Options
A) 8 B) 10 C) 12 D) 16 E) 20
The ratio of shadow to height is constant, so if x is the length of the shadow, then   6/12 = 4/x and x = 8 .   correct answer 8
