Mathematics

Minchanka [31]3 years ago

Answer:

X = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Cross Multiplication</em></u>

We can go about this 1 of 2 ways we can either cross multiply or divide across the numerators and denominators. Let's cross multiply. We would 4*9 = 6x. Which would simplify down to 36 = 6x. We would then divide the 6 on each sides of the equation to get 6 = X.

<u><em>Dividing Across</em></u>

The other way we can go about it is by seeing what 4 had to be multiplied by to get to 6. We do this by dividing 6 by for which gets us 3/2 or 1.5. Now that we know this we would then divide 9 by 3/2 or 1.5 to get the answer of 6.

Answer:

<h2> <em>x</em><em>=</em><em>6</em></h2>

<em>Solution</em><em>,</em>

<em>\frac{4}{x}  =   \frac{6}{9  }  \\ or \: 6 \times x = 4 \times 9(cross \: multiplication) \\ or \: 6x = 36 \\ or \: x =  \frac{36}{6}  \\ x = 6</em>

<em>hope</em><em> </em><em>this</em><em> </em><em>helps</em><em>.</em><em>.</em>

<em>Good</em><em> </em><em>luck</em><em> on</em><em> your</em><em> assignment</em><em>.</em><em>.</em><em>.</em>

SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

1.88

Step-by-step explanation:

A farmer sells 9.4 kilograms of pears and apples

4/5 of the total weight is pears while the rest is apple

Let x represent the number of apples

9.4= 4/5 ×9.4 + x

9.4 = 0.8×9.4+x

9.4 = 7.52+ x

9.4-7.52= x

1.88= x

x= 1.88
