Question

Please help me solve this im very confused

Answer 1

x = 7.5

Explanation:

imagine the 5 and x highlighted green

and the 6 and 9 highlighted blue

green goes on top blue goes on bottom

`(5)/(6)` =
`(x)/(9)` now cross multiply

45 = 6x

x = 7.5

you can check your answer by putting 7.5/5 and 9/6 and you get the answer 1.5 for both

hope this helps
