It would be b)3n/5 because if you put 3n/?=5/1 and cross multiply, you get 5?=3n. Then you would divide by 5 from both sides, getting the answer.

Answer:

the answer is b) 3N/5

Explanation:

The questions says that 3N = 5.

For obtain the answer, we need that one side of the equation becomes equal to 1.

the way to achieve that situation is to divide by 3N or by 5 all the equation:

Case 1. Divide by 3N

If divide all the terms in the initial equation by 3N, it gets:

3N=5


(3N)/(3N) =(5)/(3N)


1=(5)/(3N)

However this solutions is not in the multiple choice answers.

Case 2. Divide by 5

If divide all the terms in the initial equation by 3N, it gets:

3N=5


(3N)/(5) =(5)/(5)


(3N)/(5) =1

It also can be writing as
1=(3N)/(5)

Then, the correct answer is 1 = 3N/5
