k=5

#k/9=10/18#
start by cross-multiplying, so as to keep the variable and the constants on opposite sides.
therefore, k= #90/18#
which implies that, k=5

#k=5#

Here ,

#k/9=10/18#

Multiplying both sides by #9#

#k/cancel9xxcancel9=10/cancel18^2 xxcancel9#

#k=10/2#

#k=(cancel2xx5)/cancel2#

#k=5#

#k=5#

We can cross multiply to get the equation

#18k=90#

Lastly, we can divide both sides by #18# to get

#k=5#

Hope this helps!
