Question

Solve for g the proportion45/g =5/1g=

Answer 1

g = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

`\begin{gathered} (45)/(g)=(5)/(1) \\ we\text{ cross multiply} \end{gathered}`
`\begin{gathered} 45(1)\text{ = 5(g)} \\ 45\text{ = 5g} \\ \text{divide both sides by 5} \end{gathered}`
`\begin{gathered} \frac{45}{5\text{ }}=\text{ }(5g)/(5) \\ 9\text{ = g} \\ \text{hence, g = 9} \end{gathered}`
