Answer:

z = 6.5

Explanation:

If we take a look at the problem, we are solving for z.

(118)/(13) = (59)/(z)

To figure it out, we have to cross multiply. So we take
118 * z and
59 * 13 , which gives us
$118z =767\\$ . Next, we divide both sides with 118.

$(118)/(118)z=(767)/(118)\\ \\z = 6.5$

Then, we get 6.5 as our answer!

Hope this helped!
