2/3=n/72
3n=144
144/3=48
48
Right.
that is correct also
To solve the equation 2/3 = n/72, you need to cross-multiply and solve for n.
First, multiply both sides of the equation by 72 to get rid of the denominator:
(2/3) * 72 = (n/72) * 72
48 = n
Now, to solve the equation 3n = 144, divide both sides of the equation by 3 to isolate n:
3n / 3 = 144 / 3
n = 48
Therefore, the value of n is 48.
