m directly to a and inversely to b
m=ka m=k1dividedb
6=k7
6divided by 7=0.857
A variable 'm' varies directly as 'a' and inversely as 'b'. If m=6 when a=7 and b=4, what is 'm' when a=9 and b=12?
M= constant*a/b
Find the constant from the first set of data, then, using that, find m in the second set.
