Question

What number could replace k below k/100=1/10

Answer 1

We are looking at proportions/ equivalent fractions here, lets compare the fractions;

`\begin{gathered} (k)/(100)=(1)/(10) \\ \text{cross multiply, we have} \\ 10k=100 \\ \text{divide both sides by 10} \\ (10k)/(10)=(100)/(10) \\ k=10 \end{gathered}`

Therefore, the number that could replace k is 10.
