Question 562135: Hello. I'm a parent trying to help her 6th grade student. How do you solve 9/6 = h/14? 6 doesn't go into 14 evenly so do I need to reduce it to 3/2 and then 3/2 = 21/14? 2 goes into 14 seven times so I multiplied 7 x 3 and got 21. Probably didn't do it right. Please help me refresh my memory. Thanks! Beth
