Question

Does anyone know this??

Answer 1

I believe the answer is C. "15x=48."

If you cross multiply the proportion that is the equation that results from it.
$\frac{8}{15}$ = $\frac{x}{6}$
15×x=15x
8×6=48
15x=48

Answer 2

Hi there! The answer is C.

Explanation:
We have the following equation:

$\frac{8}{15} = \frac{x}{6}$
To solve this type of equation (with an x in the denominator of a fraction) we must cross-multiply the numerator and the denominator.

$15 \times x = 8 \times 6$
Multiply

$15x = 40$
Divide both sides by 15.

$x = \frac{40}{15} = 2 \frac{2}{3}$
