Answer:

a. 6

b. 15

Explanation:

We have two sets of fractions with one missing square in each of them and are asked to find the missing term.

Both of these questions can be answered with cross multiplication, fortunately we have enough information to do so.

A.

3/8 = ?/16

Multiply 3 and 16 :

48.

Now what times 8 equals 48?

6.

B.

32/24 * 20/?

Multiply 24 by 20 :

480.

Now what times 32 equals 480?

15
