Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, we will use a proportion, since x and y vary directly with each other.

16 / 20 = 60 / y

<h2>Step 1: Cross-Multiply</h2>

16y = 1200

<h2>Step 2: Divide both sides by 16</h2>

16y / 16 = 1200 / 16

y = 75

<h2>Step 3: Check</h2>

16 / 20 = 60 / 75

1200 = 1200 ✅
