Question #06201 Algebra 1 Answer Connor V. Oct 13, 2017 #y=48# Explanation: To solve for #y#, you can cross-multiply: #(3)/(16)=(9)/(y)# Multiply the #3# and the #y#, and put the product on one side of the equal sign, and then multiply the #9# and #16# and put the product on the other side; giving you: #3y=144# Now divide both sides by #3# to isolate #y#, giving you: #y=48# Answer link Related questions How do I determine the molecular shape of a molecule?
