To determine

To solve: the proportion $\frac{\omega }{7}=\frac{36}{42}$ and find the value of $\omega$ .

Answer to Problem 3MCQ

The value of $\omega$ in proportion $\frac{\omega }{7}=\frac{36}{42}$ is $6$ .

Explanation of Solution

Given information : consider, the proportionprovided in the question,

  $\frac{\omega }{7}=\frac{36}{42}$ .

Calculation : to solve the proportion multiply each side by $7$ then, divide the result by 42.

  $\begin{array}{l}\frac{\omega }{7}=\frac{36}{42}\\ \frac{\omega }{7}·7=\frac{36}{42}·7\\ \omega =\frac{252}{42}\\ \omega =6\end{array}$

Hence,

Thus,Thevalue of proportion $\frac{\omega }{7}=\frac{36}{42}$ is $6$ .
