I've already helped you in your post on Sunday, August 24, 2008 at 10:40am. Please try to do the problem and post your work if you are still having trouble it.
One way to solve this problem is by cross multiplication.

8/52=m/39
52m = 312
m = ??
I would like to thank you for your help this morning, I really do appreciate it.

You must think I am lazy, but I am not.
I have been doing math for about 2 days straight, i have been reading the materials and doing all the practices, and checkpoints, I just was having a few problems that I just could not understand, so thanks again for the help.
