We have an equation: 3/8= 45/? (= x/y)

Cross multiply:
3*?= 8*45
⇒ ?= 8*45/3= 120

Final answer: y= 120~

Let's make things easier by simplifying things.

y = 8 and x = 3 is more likely to be understood as a ratio. So for the rest of the answer, their relationship would be represented as y:x

Thus: y:x = 8:3

The problem would be finding y when x = 45

Let us proceed on using the previous equation and substitute x with 45 which would look like this:

y:45 = 8:3

Ratios can also be expressed as fractions which would make things more understandable and easy to solve. So the new form of our equation would be like this:

y/45 = 8/3

Then we proceed with a cross multiplication where the equation becomes like as what is shown below:

3y = 45 * 8

From there, you can solve it by multiplying 45 and 8 then dividing the product with 3 to get y

3y = 360

y = 120

Another way of looking at the problem, especially problems like these, is to take the whole question or statement as an equation. it would probably look like this:

y = 8 when x = 3 : y = ? when x = 45

This would make you understand what approach you can use to solve the given problem.

If 0.00005893 is expressed in the form 5.893 × 10n, what is the value of n ?
yan [13]
In the scientific value of 5.893 x 10n. The standard value is 0.00005893 what is n? To better illustrate this phenomenon, we can explain it further under the rules of scientific notation.
For example. <span><span>
1. </span><span> 3 x 10^3 = 3 x 100 = 300</span></span>
<span><span>2. </span><span> 3 x 10^-3 = 3 x 0.001 = 0.003</span></span>

Solution:
0.00005893 = 5.893 x 0.00001 = 5.893 x 10^-5  
n= ^-5

10 2/6 - 7 5/6 i know its prob easy but i need help
miv72 [106K]

Answer: 2 1/3

Explanation:

10 2/6 - 7 5/6

You can make both a fraction by multiplying the denominator by the whole number, and then adding the numerator to that number, and keeping the denominator the same. So, 10*6 = 60 and 60 + 2 = 62 and you keep the denominator as 6, which would make 62/6

7*6 = 42 and 42 + 5 = 47 so 7 5/6 becomes 47/6

10 2/6 is equivalent to 62/6

7 5/6 is equivalent to 47/6

This just makes it easier to look at.

Now you just work through the equation.

62/6 - 47/6 = 15/6

15/6 = 2 3/6 = 2 1/3
