10th grade geometry find the unknown length based on the given information lj is to jn as mk is to kp. lj = 8 , jn = ? , mk = 14 , kp = 6 . it's supposed to be set up like 8 over x = 14 over 6

MK to KP is 14:6

LJ to JN is 8:X

8/14 = X/6

X= 6 x 8 / 14 = 48 / 14 = 24 / 7 = 3 3/7

I'll do the first one for you. it isn't very hard at all.on number one, you have (50 × 3), which equals 150, and (3 × 3), which equals 9. after you establish that, you add 150 and 9 together. so, (150 + 9) equals 159.this means that 53 × 3 = 159.
