Question

N/52 = 180/120 = n

18/n = 21/28 =n
n/4 = 24/6 =n
10/16 = n/56=n
solve each propotion

Answer 1

1. n/52 = 180/120

180/120 = 1.5

n/52 = 1.5

Multiply 52 on both sides to simplify:

n=78

2. 18/n = 21/28

21/28 = 0.75

18/n = 0.75

Multiply n on both sides to remove

fraction: 18 = 0.75n and divide both sides

by 0.75 to simplify again.

n=24

3. n/4 = 24/6

24/6 = 4

n/4 = 4

Multiply 4 by both sides to simplify:

n=16

4. n/56 = 10/16

10/16 = 0.625

n/56 = 0.625

Multiply 56 on both sides to simplify:

n=35

Explanation:

Answer 2

1. n/52 = 180/120
180/120 = 1.5
n/52 = 1.5
Multiply 52 on both sides to simplify:
n=78

2. 18/n = 21/28
21/28 = 0.75
18/n = 0.75
Multiply n on both sides to remove
fraction: 18 = 0.75n and divide both sides
by 0.75 to simplify again.
n=24

3. n/4 = 24/6
24/6 = 4
n/4 = 4
Multiply 4 by both sides to simplify:
n=16

4. n/56 = 10/16
10/16 = 0.625
n/56 = 0.625
Multiply 56 on both sides to simplify:
n=35


Hope this helps :))
