OpenStudy (anonymous):

do you know how to cross multiply?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so when you cross multiply, what do you get?

OpenStudy (astrophysics):

\[\frac{ 2 }{ x }=\frac{ 6 }{ 2 }\] Cross multiply \[2(2) = 6x \implies 4 = 6x \implies x = \frac{ 4 }{ 6 } \implies x = \frac{ 2 }{ 3 }\]

No not guess, it's the same process as before just with 3 fractions.

OpenStudy (astrophysics):

Go in order, and solve the same way you would as we did for the first problem.
