The correct answer is 21 students.
If 14 students represents 2/3 of the class, we can set up a proportion:
14 = (2/3)x
To solve for x, we multiply both sides by 3/2:
x = 14 * 3/2
x = 42 / 2
x = 21
Therefore, there are 21 students in Gloria's class.
Solve for v . Simplify if needed. v−6/15=24/15 (1 point)

360/90=4
Start Fraction 360 over 90 End Fraction equals 4

Start Fraction 30 over 30 End Fraction
30/15=2
Start Fraction 30 over 15 End Fraction equals 2
18/0=undefined
The correct answer is: 30/15 = 2
To solve for v, we need to isolate the variable.
First, take -6/15 to the other side by adding it to both sides:
v = 24/15 + 6/15
v = 30/15
v = 2
Therefore, v is equal to 2.
