Six times the reciprocal of a number is 9/4. What is the number? Express your answer as a mixed number.
We need to know what that number is, so we let x be that number.
\(\dfrac6x = \dfrac94\)
Cross-multiplying,
\(9x = 24\)
Dividing by 9 on both sides:
\(x = \dfrac{24}9 = \dfrac83 = 2\dfrac23\)
Thank you so much! Very helpful I give you 5 stars! :)
6 * 1/x = 9/4 divide both sides by 6
1/x = 9/24
x = 24/9
Thank you as well! You also deserve 5 stars! You guys are awesome! :)
