450/500 = 18/g
Can somebody help me guide through this problem? Thanks!
multiply both sides by 500*g
500*g*450/500= 500*g*18/g
or
450g=500*18
now divide both sides by 450
Awesome! I understand, thanks!
Of course, I can guide you through solving this problem!
The given equation is:
450/500 = 18/g
To solve for g, we need to isolate it on one side of the equation by performing the same operations on both sides. In this case, we have a fraction on both sides of the equation.
We can cross-multiply the fractions to get rid of the denominators.
Multiply the numerator of the first fraction (450) by the denominator of the second fraction (g):
450 * g = 500 * 18
Now, we can simplify the equation:
450g = 9000
To solve for g, divide both sides of the equation by 450:
450g / 450 = 9000 / 450
g = 20
So, the value of g that satisfies the equation is 20.
