2/3=x/6=9/y to find the value of y in this proportion you must divide 54 by
2 : 3 = x : 6
x · 3 = 2 · 6
x = 12 : 3
x = 4
We have second part of a proportion:
4 : 6 = 9 : y
y · 4 = 9 · 6
y = 54 : 4 = 13.5
Answer: we must divide 54 by 4.
Answer:
You must divide \(54\) by \(4\)
Step-by-step explanation:
we have
\(\frac{2}{3}=\frac{x}{6}=\frac{9}{y}\)
Step 1
Solve for x
\(\frac{2}{3}=\frac{x}{6}\)
\(3x=6*2\\x=12/3\\x=4\)
Step 2
Find the value of y
\(\frac{x}{6}=\frac{9}{y}\)
Substitute the value of x
\(\frac{4}{6}=\frac{9}{y}\)
\(4y=9*6\\y=54/4\\y= 13.5\)
therefore
You must divide \(54\) by \(4\)
