Answer: 3 & 1/3
whole part = 3
fractional part = 1/3
=======================================================
Work Shown:
4/6 = x/5
4*5 = 6*x
20 = 6x
6x = 20
x = 20/6
x = (18+2)/6
x = (18/6) + (2/6)
x = 3 + (1/3)
x = 3 & 1/3
Side note: The first equation mentioned is only valid when we have parallel lines like this. This in turn leads to similar triangles and helps set up the ratio.
