Question

There are 6 girls in a music class. This represents 3/7 of the entire class. Solve 3/7 s =6 to find the number of students, s, in the class

Answer 1

I think the answer is Insert6.42

Answer 2

All you need to do is get the s by its self.

Divide both sides by 3/7 and get

`( (3)/(7)s)/( (3)/(7) ) = (6)/((3)/(7) )`

The two 3/7 on the first side cancel out and 6/(3/7) is 14

and so you are left with
`s=14`
