The value of c is 5

Step-by-step explanation:
\begin{gathered} \text{Given:} \\ (3)/(4)\text{ = }(7.5)/(2c) \end{gathered}

To solve for c, we will cross multiply:


\begin{gathered} 3(2c)\text{ = 4(7.5)} \\ 6c\text{ = 30} \end{gathered}

Divide both sides by 6:


\begin{gathered} (6c)/(6)\text{ = }(30)/(6) \\ c\text{ = 5} \end{gathered}

The value of c is 5
