Question

Use equivalent ratios to find the unknown value 12/5=v/15

Answer 1

36

Explanation:

To find the unknown value, we can use equivalent ratios. We can write the given ratio as:

512​=15v​

To solve for v, we can cross-multiply the given ratio:

12×15=5×v

Simplifying the above expression, we get:

v=512×15​=5180​=136​=36​

Therefore, the unknown value is 36.

Answer 2

12/5 = 36/15

Explanation:

divide denominators 15/5 = 3

Multiply the numerator by the answer to the previous step 12*3 = 36

Set 36 as the numerator = 36/15
