Which proportion has a solution of 8?
need the answer choices ?
thirty over twelve equals n over forty-five twelve over thirty equals n over forty-five twelve over n equals forty-five over thirty twelve over thirty equals forty-five over n
let me show you how to solve a proportion... 30/12 = n/45 cross multiply (12)(n) = (45)(30) 12n = 1350 now divide by 12 to get n by itself 12n/12 = 1350/12 n = 112.5 obviously this is not the correct answer because n does not equal 8. you want to ry the next answer choice ?
I need the answer in 5 mins
12/30 = n/45 30n = 540 n = 18 (no) 12/n = 45/30 45n = 360 n = 8 (BINGO, it is this one)
thank you sooo much
no problem...do you understand how I did these ?
