Question

What’s the answer to this equation and how do you solve it?

Answer 1

`\bf \cfrac{9}{~~(1)/(3)~~}=\cfrac{6}{x}\implies \cfrac{(9)/(1)}{~~(1)/(3)~~}=\cfrac{6}{x}\implies \cfrac{9}{1}\cdot \cfrac{3}{1}=\cfrac{6}{x}\implies 27=\cfrac{6}{x}\implies 27x=6 \\\\\\ x=\cfrac{\stackrel{2}{~~\begin{matrix} 6 \\[-0.7em]\cline{1-1}\\[-5pt]\end{matrix}~~}}{\underset{9}{~~\begin{matrix} 27 \\[-0.7em]\cline{1-1}\\[-5pt]\end{matrix}~~}}\implies x = \cfrac{2}{9}`

Answer 2

D

Explanation:

`x = ((1)/(3) * 6) / 9`

`x = 2 / 9`

`x = (2)/(9)`
