Question

Solve 6/r = 2/3 RATIOS AND PROPORTIONS

Answer 1

Answer:

r=9

Step-by-step explanation:

6       2

---- = ------

r         3

We can use cross products to solve

6 * 3 = 2 * r

18 = 2r

Divide by 2

18/2 = 2r/2

9 = r

Answer 2

$\bf{Hey\ there!}$

$\bold{\frac{6}{r}=\frac{2}{3}}$

$\text{First, you have to cross multiply}$

$\bullet{\ \bold{numerator\times denminator}}$

$\bullet{ \ \bold{denominator\times numerator}}$

$\bold{6\times3=18}$

$\bold{2\times r=2r}$

$\text{Your equation becomes: 2r = 18}$

$\text{\underline{DIVIDE}\ by 2 on each of your sides!}$

$\bold{\frac{2r}{2}=\frac{18}{2}}$

$\bf{Cancel:\frac{2r}{2}\ because\ it\ gives\ us the result\ of\ 1}$

$\bf{Keep:\frac{18}{2}\ because\ it\ gives\ us the\ value\ of\ r}$

$\bf{18\div2=9}$

$\boxed{\boxed{\bold{Answer:x=9}}}$ $\checkmark$

$\text{Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!}$
