Answer:


K=30

Explanation:


rewrite \: the \: equation \: as \: (k)/(9) = (10)/(3)


(k)/(9) = (10)/(3)


multiply \: both \: sides \: of \: the \: equation \: \\ by \: 9.


9. (k)/(9) = 9. (10)/(3)


simplify \: both \: sides \: of \: the \: equation.


cancel \: the \: common \: factor \: of \: 9.


cancel \: the \: common \: factor.


9. (k)/(9) = 9. (10)/(3)


rewrite \: the \: expression.


k = 9. (10)/(3)


cancel \: the \: common \: factor \: of \: 3.


factor \: 3 \: out \: of \: 9.


k=3(3)⋅ (10)/(3)


cancel \: the \: common \: factor.


k=3⋅3⋅ (10)/(3)


rewrite \: the \: expression.


k=3⋅10


multiply \: 3 \: by \: 10.


k = 30
