Hello.
In order to solve a proportion, you should cross-multiply:
[tex]\displaystyle\frac{7}{x} =\frac{5}{9}[/tex]
Multiply 7 times 9 and 5 times x:
5x=63
Divide both sides by 5:
x=[tex]\displaystyle\frac{63}{5}[/tex]
Now let's solve the second proportion.
Multiply 8p times 6 and 12 times 15:
48p=180
Divide both sides by 48:
p=3.75
I hope it helps.
Have an outstanding day.
