Solve 1.5/2.5=6/s

$$\frac { 1.5 } { 2.5 } = \frac { 6 } { s }$$

Solve for s

$$s=10$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Variable s cannot be equal to 0 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by s.

$$s\times \frac{1.5}{2.5}=6$$

Expand \frac{1.5}{2.5} by multiplying both numerator and the denominator by 10.

$$s\times \frac{15}{25}=6$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{15}{25} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 5.

$$s\times \frac{3}{5}=6$$

Multiply both sides by \frac{5}{3}, the reciprocal of \frac{3}{5}.

$$s=6\times \frac{5}{3}$$

Express 6\times \frac{5}{3} as a single fraction.

$$s=\frac{6\times 5}{3}$$

Multiply 6 and 5 to get 30.

$$s=\frac{30}{3}$$

Divide 30 by 3 to get 10.

$$s=10$$
