    How does the ratio 10:19 convert into inches?
    Khalid Shah Durrani
    Community Answer
    What that means is, for every 10 inches tall the flag is, it will be 19 inches wide. So every 1 inch it is tall, that will be 1.9 inches wide, and every 1 inch it is wide, it will be 0.526315 inches tall.

  • Question
    Why is the American flag similar to the Liberian and Malaysian flags?
    Community Answer
    The US flag was designed in 1775. The Liberian flag was designed in 1847 when former American slaves emigrated to Africa. The Malaysian flag was made in 1963, the result of a public design contest and a subsequent public vote.
