Asked by Matt-Please Help

A town in east Texas received 10 inches of rain in two 2 weeks if it kept raining at this rate for a 31 day month, how much rain did the town receive?

I am confused on how to figure out the answer for this. Can you please help me.

10/14 = x/31

Cross multiply and solve for x.
Answered by Matt-Please Help
So if I cross multiply
then 14 x 31=434
10x31=4,350

or

If I reduce 10/14 that would equal 5/7
5/7=1,085/31

Can you check and see if I did this right?
Answered by Ms. Sue
No.

14x = 31 * 10

Answered by Matt-Please Help
So would the answer be 310
Answered by Ms. Sue
14x = 310

What is x?
Answered by Matt-Please Help
