solve for v.\n\n\\( \\frac { 9 } { 12 } = \\frac { v } { 8 } \\)\n\nsimplify your answer as much as possible.\n\n\\( v = \\)
Answer
Explanation:
Step1: Cross - multiply
$$\frac{9}{12}=\frac{v}{8}\Rightarrow9\times8 = 12\times v$$
Step2: Simplify the left - hand side
$$72=12v$$
Step3: Solve for (v)
Divide both sides by (12): (v=\frac{72}{12})
Answer:
(v = 6)
