What is the solution of the proportion? 6/a = 18/27
Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

a=9

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this proportion, we have to get the variable, a, by itself.

First, cross multiply.

6/a=18/27

Multiply the denominator of the first fraction by the numerator of the second, and the numerator of the second by the denominator of the first.

a*18=6*27

18a=162

Now, 18 and a are being multiplied. In order to get a by itself, perform the opposite of what is being done. They are being multiplied, so the opposite would be division. Divide both sides by 18.

18a/18=162/18

a=162/18

a=9

So, the proportion, with 9 substituted in for a, will be:

6/9=18/27
