Answer:
y = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
y/9 = 2/6
y/9 = 1/3 (dividing by 2in both numerator and denominator.)
CROSS MULTIPLYING WE GET
3y = 9*1
3y = 9
y = 3
Answer:
There are 80 paperbacks on the shelf
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply 2/3 by 120
So that would be:
2/3 x 120/1
(2 x 120)/(3x1)=240/3=80
168
You add 4, 1, and 2 to get 7. You put 4/7=x/294. Then you use proportions to solve for x.
7x=1176
x=168
