Question

I need help with cross products I need to find the value of x in the problem for 4/9=x/15

Answer 1

$\frac{4}{9}=\frac{x}{15}$

15 is dividing on the right, then it will multiply on the left

9 is dividing on the left, then it will multiply on the right

$\begin{gathered} 4\cdot15=x\cdot9 \\ 60=x\cdot9 \end{gathered}$

Now, 9 is multiplying on the right, then it will divide on the left

$\frac{60}{9}=x$
