Hey there!
2/3 = a/30
First: you have to CROSS MULTIPLY the given numbers
2(30) = 3(a)
2(30) = 60
3(a) = 3a
New EQUATION: 3a = 60
Second: DIVIDE 3 to BOTH SIDES
3a/3 = 60/3
CANCEL out: 3/3 because that gives you 1
KEEP: 60/3 because that helps you solve for your a-value
60/3 = a
60/3 = 20
Therefore, your answer is: a = 20
Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!

Answer:
=36
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
72 degrees.
Step-by-step explanation:
If the angle is x degrees its complement is 90-x degrees and it's supplement is 180-x degrees.
4(90-x) = 2/3(180 - x)
360 - 4x = 120 - 2/3 x
360 - 120 = -2/3 x + 4x
240 = -2/3 + 12/3 x
240 = 10/3 x
x = 240 * 3/10
x = 72 degrees.
