If equal, the means will equal the extreams ... in short ... cross multiply and compare the results.
FALSE
So they are NOT equal
Reduce the fraction first (just makes it easier.)
Cross Multiply
Just an FYI ... normally, if a problem is in fraction form, put the answer in fraction form, too, even if it means leaving it in a "reduced" improper fraction.
As a teacher I would rather see 96/5 than 19.2 or 19 1/5
Figure out what your teacher wants, and give your answers in that form.
