By what factor must length of current board be multiplied

Reference no: EM13318925

A diving board of uniform cross-section is designed to deflect 6" under the weight of a 150 pound person standing on the end. With the recent trend towards obesity, the manufacturer wants to change the length (but not the cross-section) so that the 6" deflection occurs when a 200 pound person stands on the end. By what factor must the length of the current board be multiplied to calculate the length of the new board?
