Hey there!

ANSWER: [tex]x=6[/tex]

EXPLANATION:

[tex]\frac{2}{3}=\frac{x}{9}[/tex]

For the first step, we will need to use the cross multiplying method.

[tex]\frac{2}{3} =\frac{x}{9}\\ (2)*(9)=(x)*(3)\\18=3x[/tex]

Now let's flip.

[tex]3x=18[/tex]

Now for the final step, we will have to divide both sides by 3.

[tex]\frac{3x}{3} equals\frac{18}{3}[/tex]

Simplify 18/3.

[tex]18/3=6\\6(ANSWER)[/tex]

Hope this helps!
