8/24= b/12

The denominator in the first fraction is 2 times greater than the denominator in the second fraction. Thus, this must be the case for the numerators.

b=8/2=4

Answer: b=9

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify [tex]\frac{18}{24} to \frac{3}{4}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{3}{4} =\frac{b}{12}[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 12.

[tex]\frac{3}{4}*12=b[/tex]

Use the rule [tex]\frac{a}{b} *c=\frac{ac}{b} \\[/tex]

[tex]\frac{3*12}{4} =b[/tex]

Simplify 3*12 to 36

[tex]\frac{36}{4} =b[/tex]

9=b

Switch sides

b=9

Hope this helps, have a BLESSED and wonderful day, as well as a safe one!
