Answer:


z = 6.5

Explanation:

If we take a look at the problem, we are solving for z.


(118)/(13) = (59)/(z)

To figure it out, we have to cross multiply. So we take
118 * z and
59 * 13, which gives us
118z =767\\. Next, we divide both sides with 118.


(118)/(118)z=(767)/(118)\\ \\z = 6.5

Then, we get 6.5 as our answer!

Hope this helped!
