To find the number that makes the ratio equivalent to 1:6 and 9: x, we can proceed as follows:


(1)/(6)\colon(9)/(x)_{}\Rightarrow x\cdot1=9\cdot6\Rightarrow x=54

We can check this result as follows:


(1)/(6)\colon(9)/(54)\Rightarrow(9)/(54)=(1)/(6)\Rightarrow(1)/(6)=(9)/(54)

Then, the value that makes the ratio equivalent to 1:6 is 54 (9:54.) The number is 54.
