Question

Solve for x:2/3=x/9 can someone solve this

Answer 1

Hey there!

ANSWER:
`x=6`

Step-by-step explanation:

`(2)/(3)=(x)/(9)`

For the first step, we will need to use the cross multiplying method.

`(2)/(3) =(x)/(9)\\ (2)*(9)=(x)*(3)\\18=3x`

Now let's flip.

`3x=18`

Now for the final step, we will have to divide both sides by 3.

`(3x)/(3) equals(18)/(3)`

Simplify 18/3.

`18/3=6\\6(ANSWER)`

Hope this helps!
