✔ 最佳答案
2.4/n = 3/5
3n = 5(2.4)
3n = 12
n = 4

2.4:n = 3:5
2.4 = 3n:5
12 = 3n
n = 12/3
n = 4

When you have a ratio a:b = c:d you write the equality of the fractions.
a/b = c/d
Therefore, this ratio is
2.4/n = 3/5
Cross multiply to get
3*n = 2.4*5 = 12
Divide both sides by 3
3*n/3 = n = 12/3 = 4
So
n=4

Good Luck
