Question

How do you solve 2/5g=3/5 with a whole number??? I'm stuck

Answer 1

Answer:

g = 3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Multiply both sides by 5 (the whole number).

• $\frac{2}{5}g * 5 = \frac{3}{5} * 5$
• $2g = \frac{15}{5}$
• $2g = 3$

Step 2: Divide both sides by 2.

• $2g/2 = 3/2$
• $g = 3/2$

Therefore, g = 3/2.

Answer 2

Answer:

g = 1$\frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{2}{5} g = \frac{3}{5}$

Multiply both sides by $\frac{5}{2}$ the reciprocal of $\frac{2}{5}$.

$g = \frac{3}{5}$ ×$(\frac{5}{2})$

Multiply $\frac{3}{5}$ times $\frac{5}{2}$ by multiplying numerator times numerator and denominator times denominator.

$g = \frac{3x5}{5x2}$

Cancel out 5 in both numerator and denominator.

$g = \frac{3}{2}$

simplify

1$\frac{1}{2}$

Hope it helps and have a great day! =D
