Question

Solve for r

5/12 · r = 10/11

Write your answer as a fraction or as a whole or mixed number.

r = ___

Answer 1

Answer:

r = 2  2/11

Step-by-step explanation:

5/12 · r = 10/11

Multiply each side by 12/5 to isolate r

(12/5) *5/12 · r = 10/11* 12/5

r = 12/11 * 10/5

r = 12/11*2

r = 24/11

r = 2  2/11

Answer 2

Answer:

11/24

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply both sides of this equation by 12/5 to isolate r:

     (5/12)(12/5)

r = ------------------ = 55/120

      (12/5)(10/11)

r = 55/120 = 11/24
