Question

Solve 6/r = 2/3 RATIOS AND PROPORTIONS

Answer 1

r=9

Explanation:

6 2

---- = ------

r 3

We can use cross products to solve

6 * 3 = 2 * r

18 = 2r

Divide by 2

18/2 = 2r/2

9 = r

Answer 2

`\bf{Hey\ there!}`

`\bold{(6)/(r)=(2)/(3)}`

`\text{First, you have to cross multiply}`

`\bullet{\ \bold{numerator* denminator}}`

`\bullet{ \ \bold{denominator* numerator}}`

`\bold{6*3=18}`

`\bold{2* r=2r}`

`\text{Your equation becomes: 2r = 18}`

`\text{\underline{DIVIDE}\ by 2 on each of your sides!}`

`\bold{(2r)/(2)=(18)/(2)}`

`\bf{Cancel:(2r)/(2)\ because\ it\ gives\ us the result\ of\ 1}`

`\bf{Keep:(18)/(2)\ because\ it\ gives\ us the\ value\ of\ r}`

`\bf{18/2=9}`

`\boxed{\boxed{\bold{Answer:x=9}}}`
`\checkmark`

`\text{Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!}`
