Solve for z.

z/12 = 4/5

z=9.6

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve, we need to isolate z

z/12=4/5

Cross multiply

5*z=12*4

5z=48

Divide by 5 on both sides

z=9.6

Another way to approach this is to multiply both sides by 12, to"reverse"the division being done to z

z/12=4/5

12 (z/12) = (4/5) 12

z=9.6
