Question 185106

{{{300/24=18/j}}} Start with the given equation.



{{{(300/24)*j=18}}} Multiply both sides by j



{{{300*j=18*24}}} Multiply both sides by 24



{{{300*j=432}}} Multiply



{{{j=432/300}}} Divide both sides by 300



{{{j=36/25}}} Simplify




So our answer is  {{{j=36/25}}} which in decimal form is {{{j=1.44}}}
