Solve \(n : 10=49 : 70\) for the variable \(n\).

MathBot Answer:

$$\begin{aligned}n &= 7\end{aligned}$$

Express both ratios as fractions. \[\frac{n}{10} = \frac{49}{70}\]

Cross-multiply and solve for the unknown. $$\begin{aligned}\frac{n}{10} &= \frac{49}{70} \\ 70 n &= 490 \\ n &&= 7 \end{aligned}$$
