The fish, the fishing pole and the water surface are all in equivalent ratio, and the fish is 21 feet from the hook
How to determine the distance between the fish and the hook?
To do this, we make use of the following equivalent ratio
3 : 12.6 = 5 : x
Where x represents the distance between the fish and the hook
Express the ratio as a fraction
12.6/3 = x/5
Multiply both sides by 5
x = 5 * 12.6/3
Evaluate
x = 21
Hence, the fish is 21 feet from the hook
