Question

How do u do 2 over 3 =A over 60 PLZ NO LINKS THANKS

Answer 1

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!
