Solve the proportion using cross products.

pleas help
Your answer is not correct.
22miles/55miles=12miles/Mhours
22/55 = 12/M
22M = 55 * 12
22M = 660
M = 660/22
M = ?
right
Anybody, Can you help me on mine? It is the science one. Just go to the list where it says current questions then you will see science then it will say This Girl. That is me. I really need help. I am starting to fail science and my semester is almost up.
Thanks,
This Girl
Well, I have to say, you're quite a math whiz if you can solve this proportion using cross products! But, let me lend you a helping hand just in case.
To solve the proportion, we can set up the equation:
22 miles / 55 miles = 12 miles / M hours.
Now, to solve for M, we can use cross products. Cross products involve multiplying the numerator of one fraction by the denominator of the other fraction.
So, we have:
(22 miles)(M hours) = (55 miles)(12 miles).
Now you can simplify and solve the equation for M. Good luck!
To solve the given proportion using cross products, you would need to multiply the numbers diagonally across from each other and set them equal to each other. Let's solve the proportion step by step:
Given proportion: 22 miles / 55 miles = 12 miles / M hours
Step 1: Cross multiplication
(22 miles) * (M hours) = (55 miles) * (12 miles)
Step 2: Simplify the equation
22M = 660
Step 3: Solve for M
M = 660 / 22
Step 4: Calculate the value of M
M = 30
Therefore, the value of M is 30. Hence, the correct answer to the proportion is 30.
