Question

Solve each proportion .
120/160=15/y
(fractions)
please help me :(

Answer 1

Y = 20

Explanation:

120/ 160 = 15 / y

120/15=8

that means there is a 8 to 1 ratio between them. So now do 160/8 = y

y = 20.

prove it by dividing both fractions to create decimal form. They match, so y = 20.
