Answer:

108

Step-by-step explanation:

Proportions

Two quantities are proportional when one of them can be obtained by multiplying or dividing the other by a constant value. For example, knowing the price of one pencil as p, we can know the cost of purchasing X pencils as C=p.X

We are required to increase 90 by the ratio 6:5. The new value will be proportional to the original because we'll compute the product of


\displaystyle 90\ (6)/(5)=108

So the new value is 108
