[tex]\frac{8}{7} = \frac{n}{9}[/tex]
Cross multiply the fractions:
[tex]7 \times n = 7n[/tex]
[tex]8 \times 9 = 72[/tex]
[tex]7n = 72[/tex]
Divide both sides by 7 to get n by itself:
[tex]72 \div 7 = 10.28[/tex]
[tex]n = 10.28[/tex]
The value of n is 10.28.
Cross multiply the fractions:

[tex]7n = 72[/tex]
Divide both sides by 7 to get n by itself:
[tex]72 \div 7 = 10.28[/tex]
[tex]n = 10.28[/tex]
The value of n is 10.28.
