Question

Can you solve this problem please im having trouble with this question ​

Answer 1

≈3.71

Explanation:

To get from 17 to 9, you would divide by 17 and then multiply by 9, so in order to find y, you would multiply 7 by 9/17:

7 * 9/17

= 63/17

Now, you just have to simplify. That could be written as 3 12/17 if you turn it into a proper fraction, or if you turn it into a decimal, you would get about 3.71 (rounding to the tenths).

Answer 2

The answer is 3.7

Explanation:

Use cross multiplication to set up the equation then simplify,

17y = 63

y = 63/17

y = 3.705

Round to the nearest tenth.

Solution is y = 3.07

Good luck!
