Given the equation:

[tex]\frac{3}{7}=\frac{6}{y}[/tex]

Let's solve the equation for y.

Take the following steps:

Step 1.

Cross multiply:

[tex]\begin{gathered} 3\ast y=7\ast6 \\ \\ 3y=42 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Step 2.

Divide both sides by 3:

[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{3y}{3}=\frac{42}{3} \\ \\ y=14 \end{gathered}[/tex]

ANSWER:

y = 14
