4.8/1 7/9 =(1.2b):6 2/3

Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

b = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for b:

$\dfrac{4.8}{1\frac{7}{9}}=\dfrac{1.2b}{6\frac{2}{3}}$

Cross multiply:

$6\dfrac{2}{3}\cdot 4.8=1.2b\cdot 1\dfrac{7}{9}\\ \\\dfrac{6\cdot 3+2}{3}\cdot 4.8=1.2b\cdot \dfrac{9+7}{9}\\ \\\dfrac{20}{3}\cdot \dfrac{48}{10}=\dfrac{12b}{10}\cdot \dfrac{16}{9}\\ \\20\cdot 4=b\cdot \dfrac{16}{3}\\ \\5=b\cdot \dfrac{1}{3}\\ \\b=5\cdot 3\\ \\b=15$
