Answer:


d=(147)/(6.3)

Explanation:

  • The right side is a ratio
    0.84:(7)/(15)
  • a ratio can be written as a fraction
    (0.84)/((7)/(15) ) this means
    0.84 divide by
    (7)/(15) which is the same as
    0.84*(15)/(7)=(12.6)/(7)
  • On the left, change the mixed fraction
    3(1)/(3) to the improper fraction
    (10)/(3)
  • Then divide
    0.3d-1 by
    (10)/(3) which is same as
    (0.3d-1)*(3)/(10) =(3(0.3d-1))/(10)
  • So the equation is now
    (3(0.3d-1))/(10)=(12.6)/(7)
  • Now multiply both sides by 10 and 7:

  • (10)*(7)*(3(0.3d-1))/(10)=(12.6)/(7)*(7)*(10)\\7*3(0.3d-1)=12.6*(10)\\21*(0.3d-1)=126\\6.3d-21=126\\6.3d-21+(21)=126+(21)\\6.3d=147\\d=(147)/(6.3)
