Question

What is the solution of each proportion?

4/9=m/54

Question 16 options:

1/24

24

2/3

6

Answer 1

You have to cross multiply the two proportions.

4(54)= 216

9(m)= 9m

then you divide 216 by 9, giving you the answer for m.

216/9= 24

m=24

Answer 2

Hey!

Let's make a proportion:

`(4)/(9) = (m)/(54)`

Cross multiply

`54 * 4 = 216`

Divide by 9

`216 / 9 = 24`

That means your answer is 24
