Solve the following proportion for
y.
Y/4 = 11/13
Round your answer to the nearest tenth.
y = (4 * 11)/13
y = 44/13
y ≈ 3.4
To solve the proportion Y/4 = 11/13 for y, you can cross multiply and then solve for y.
Cross multiplying gives:
13 * Y = 4 * 11
Simplifying the equation:
13Y = 44
Now, divide both sides of the equation by 13 to isolate y:
Y = 44/13
Calculating the value of Y:
Y ≈ 3.4
Therefore, the solution for y in the proportion Y/4 = 11/13 is approximately 3.4 (rounded to the nearest tenth).
