Question

Solve the equation below: frac{d}{1.2} = 6" alt=" \frac{d}{1.2} = 6" align="absmiddle" class="latex-formula">

Answer 1

We need to cross multiply.

$\frac{a}{b} = \frac{c}{d}$

$= \frac{a}{b} \times bd= \frac{c}{d} \times bd$

$ad=bc$

So your question is:
$\frac{d}{1.2}=6$

This can also be written as:
$\frac{d}{1.2} = \frac{6}{1}$

So if we cross multiply, we will get

$d \times 1 = 1.2 \times 6$

$d= 7.2$

Answer 2

D/1.2 = 6

Multiply 1.2 to both sides:

d = 7.2
