so far so good:
17/4x = 23/(x+6)
now cross-multiply (shorthand for saying multiply by the LCD):
17(x+6) = 23(4x)
17x + 102 = 92x
102 = 75x
x = 102/75 = 34/25
17/4x = 23/(x+6)
now cross-multiply (shorthand for saying multiply by the LCD):
17(x+6) = 23(4x)
17x + 102 = 92x
102 = 75x
x = 102/75 = 34/25
