Question

Solve= 10/8 = n/10
Write your answer as an improper fraction in simplest form.

Answer 1

`n=(25)/(2)`.

Explanation:

1. Write the expression.

`(10)/(8) =(n)/(10)`

2. Solve the equation for n.

`(10)/(8) =(n)/(10)`

`10*((10)/(8)) =((n)/(10))*10` ----> Multiply both sides by 10.

`10*((10)/(8)) =n`----> Simplify.

`(10*10)/(8) =n`----> Solve the fraction product.

`(100)/(8) =n`----> Simplify.

`(100/4)/(8/4) =n`----> Simplify by dividing the numerator and denominator by the same number.

`(25)/(2) =n`----> Simplify.

`n=(25)/(2)`----> Reorganize.

3. Express your result.

`n=(25)/(2)`.
