Provide the Major product for the following reactions
![The image shows two chemical reactions with their respective reagents and conditions:
1. **First Reaction:**
- **Reactant:** A six-membered cyclic structure (cyclohexane) with a bromine (Br) and a methyl (CH₃) group attached. The bromine is on the top carbon, and the methyl group is on the adjacent carbon.
- **Reagent and Conditions:** Methanol (MeOH) and heat, indicated by an arrow pointing right.
2. **Second Reaction:**
- **Reactant:** A five-membered cyclic structure (cyclopentane) with a bromine (Br) and a methyl (CH₃) group attached. The bromine is on one carbon, and the methyl group is on the adjacent carbon.
- **Reagent:** Sodium ethoxide (EtONa), indicated by an arrow pointing right.
The image provides a visual representation of organic reactions, indicating the use of methanol with heat and sodium ethoxide as reagents for potential substitution or elimination processes.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F7423eaec-6102-47dd-b549-9f119ff2a573%2F8a74ecb8-11a9-4c1e-9ffd-5c7eb9ebf74d%2Frpihkuf_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
