Answer:
This is a proportion
Step-by-step explanation:
Cross multiply:
12 * 20 = 16 * 15
Simplifying:
12 * 20 = 16 * 15
Multiply 12 * 20
240 = 16 * 15
Multiply 16 * 15
240 = 240
Add ‘-240’ to each side of the equation.
240 + -240 = 240 + -240
Combine like terms: 240 + -240 = 0
0 = 240 + -240
Combine like terms: 240 + -240 = 0
0 = 0
Solving
0 = 0
