Answer:
x = 5 .6 .
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : [tex]\frac{5}{8} = \frac{x}{9}[/tex].
To find : Solve round to the nearest tenth.
Solution : We have given [tex]\frac{5}{8} = \frac{x}{9}[/tex].
On cross multiplication
5 * 9 = x * 8
45 = 8x
On dividing both sides by 8 and switching the sides
x = [tex]\frac{45}{8}[/tex].
x = 5 . 62
Nearest tenth is 5 . 6
Therefore, x = 5 .6 .
