In order to solve proportions, apply cross-multiplication:
[tex]\longrightarrow\tt{\displaystyle\frac{14}{22}=\frac{x}{9}}[/tex]
[tex]\longrightarrow\tt{14\cdot9=x\cdot22}[/tex]
Simplify:
[tex]\longrightarrow\tt{126=22x}[/tex]
Divide both sides by 22:
[tex]\longrightarrow\tt{\displaystyle\frac{126}{22}=\frac{22x}{22}}[/tex]
Reduce the fraction:
[tex]\longrightarrow\tt{\displaystyle\frac{63}{11}=x}[/tex]
I hope this helps you! Have an awesome day!
