2.923----> move the decimal three times to the left because that is how many spaces you have to the right on the actual equation until the next decimal.
The product of 0.79x 3.7 is 2.923. And, the decimal was moved three times to the right of the equation because of the number of spaces until the next decimal which then allows you to move the decimal three times to the left on the product.
Bill's original ratio is like this...
6 to 10
You need to solve for this...
x to 15
You have to multiply both sides of the original ratio by 15...
6 times 15 = 90
10 times 15 = 150
Your new ratio is 90 to 150
Which reduces to 3 to 5
Yout new ratio is 3 to 5
x=11
x is equal to 11 because you subtract 4x from both sides and then add 8 to both sides where you are left with 2x=22. After dividing by 2, you get x=11
