Question

How do you solve `\frac { n } { 6} = \frac { 9} { 11}`?

Answer 1

See a solution process below:

Explanation:

Multiply each side of the equation by `color(red)(6)` to solve for `n` while keeping the equation balanced:

`color(red)(6) xx n/6 = color(red)(6) xx 9/11`

`cancel(color(red)(6)) xx n/color(red)(cancel(color(black)(6))) = 54/11`

`n = 54/11`
