Question

Please help help help​

Answer 1

a = 3

Explanation:

We can start by cross multiplying, which is a method to help solve proportions. We get:

5 * a = 3 * (a + 2)

Now, we can distribute the 3 and solve:

5a = 3a + 6

-3a -3a

2a = 6

/2 /2

a = 3

Answer 2

`a = 3`

Explanation:

`(a)/(a + 2) = (3)/(5)`

`a * 5=(a+2) * 3`

`5a=(a+2) * 3`

`5a=3a+6`

`5a−3a=6`

`2a=6`

`a = (6)/(2)`

`a = 3`
