Answer: Option 'B' is correct.

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Dimensions of the photo is given by

$20\ in.\ by\ 24\ in.$

According to question, the photo is reduced so that the longer dimension is 15 inch.

So, Let the width of the reduced photo be x.

So, it becomes,

$(20)/(x)=(24)/(15)\\\\x=(15* 20)/(24)\\\\x=12.5\ in.$

So, the width of the reduced photo is 12.5 inch.

Hence, Option 'B' is correct.
