Step-by-step explanation:

2/5=y/15

cross multiply

2x15=5y

y=6

Answer 2

Answer:

From the given data we are computing the value of y to be 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a Question of ratios

We are given 2 : 5 = y : 15

If we solve this we will be getting $\frac{2}{5} = \frac{y}{15}$

After cross multiplication, we will get

$5y= 15*2\\or, y = \frac{30}{5} \\or, y = 6$
