OpenStudy (bibby):

"cross multiply" , read up on fractions

OpenStudy (bibby):

did I say fractions I meant proportions

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but i dont know what proportions are

OpenStudy (texaschic101):

proportions are nothing but equivalent fractions... 3/(5 1/2) = 5/x --- 3 bags to 5 1/2 lbs = 5 bags to x lbs ...turn 5 1/2 into an improper fraction 3/(11/2) = 5/x cross multiply (3)(x) = (11/2)(5) 3x = 55/2 x = (55/2) / 3 x = 55/2 * 1/3 x = 55/6 which equals 9 1/6
