set up a proportion 12/3 = 6/x cross multiply 18 = 12 x x = 12/18 or 2/3 I think you divided backwards

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh, yes, i did that the first time.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and got 0.6666666...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So I thought that was wrong.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So i did 2/8 = x/6

OpenStudy (anonymous):

And got 1.5.

OpenStudy (tanner23456):

Wait you're right I'm wrong, sorry x = 18/12 so your x = 1.5 answer is correct.
