To solve the ratio \( \frac{x}{6} = \frac{3}{9} \), we can cross-multiply:
\[
x \cdot 9 = 3 \cdot 6
\]
This simplifies to:
\[
9x = 18
\]
Now, divide both sides by 9:
\[
x = \frac{18}{9}
\]
Therefore, \( x = 2 \).
So, if \( x:6 \) as \( 3:9 \), then \( x \) is equal to **2**.
\[
x \cdot 9 = 3 \cdot 6
\]
This simplifies to:
\[
9x = 18
\]
Now, divide both sides by 9:
\[
x = \frac{18}{9}
\]
Therefore, \( x = 2 \).
So, if \( x:6 \) as \( 3:9 \), then \( x \) is equal to **2**.
