Answer:

y=85

Explanation:

To make the fraction eqivalent you need to multiply both the denominator and the numerator by the same number. So you need to find that number.

For that you find what number multiplied by 9 gives you 45.

Divide: 45/9=5

Now you multiply the numerator by 5: 17x5=85.

So the value of y is 85

Hope this helps:)
