Answer:
[tex]\frac{x}{y}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{4}{9}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]\frac{x}{5}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{5}{y}[/tex]
This can be expressed in 2 parts as
[tex]\frac{x}{5}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] ( cross- multiply )
3x = 10 ( divide both sides by 3 )
x = [tex]\frac{10}{3}[/tex]
and
[tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{5}{y}[/tex] ( cross- multiply )
2y = 15 ( divide both sides by 2 )
y = [tex]\frac{15}{2}[/tex]
Thus
[tex]\frac{x}{y}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{\frac{10}{3} }{\frac{15}{2} }[/tex] = [tex]\frac{10}{3}[/tex] × [tex]\frac{2}{15}[/tex] ( cancel 10 and 15 by 5 )
[tex]\frac{x}{y}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] × [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{4}{9}[/tex]
Answer:
= 4/9
Step-by-step explanation:
2/3 to the averall of 2/3 ans we got 5/y
sp ab- x/5 = 4/9
