Answer 2

n    3

--------

6    8

8n=18

n=18/8=9/4=2.25

Answer 3

Cross Multiply.

n x 8 = 3 x 6

8n = 18

n = 18/8

Answer 4

n = 2.25.. cross multiplay 8n = 18.. 18 divided by 8=n

Answer 5

n/6 = 3/8

You aim is to get n on its own so first thing to do is multiply n/6 by 6 which will leave n on its own and then multiply 3/8 x 6/1.  Putting the 6 over 1 just keeps everything simple and easy to follow when multiplying

When multiplying fractions you just multiply the two numerators and then the two denominators.

So n = 3 x 6/8 x 1

n = 18/8 simplify by dividing both numbers by 2

n = 9/4

Answer 6

n= 18/3
