To solve the proportion 10/u = 17/7 for u, cross multiply:

10 * 7 = 17 * u

70 = 17u

Now divide both sides of the equation by 17:

70/17 = u

u ≈ 4.1

Apologies for the oversight. To round the answer to the nearest tenth, we'll consider the decimal places after the tenths place.

Upon evaluating 70/17, the decimal result is approximately 4.1176. When rounded to the nearest tenth, it becomes 4.1. Therefore, the answer rounded to the nearest tenth is 4.1.
