For the sake of showing work I will replace the empty space with an x like so...
To find out what x is you must cross multiply (aka butterfly)
***Image of this step is attached below
3*24 = 8*x
72 = 8x
Next divide 8 to both sides to finish isolating x. Since 8 is being multiplied by x, division (the opposite of multiplication) will cancel 8 out (in this case it will make 8 one) from the right side and bring it over to the left side.
72 ÷ 8 = 8x ÷ 8
9 = 1x
9 = x
To make these fractions equivalent the empty spot must be 9
Hope this helped!

Answer:
9
Step-by-step explanation:
Whatever you do to the denominator, you've got to do to the numerator, and vice versa. So for 8 to become 24, you multiply by 3. do that to the numerator 3 as well. 3 × 3 is 9.
Answer:
Yes she is right
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that Ayesha has a theory about two digits numbers that have a larger tens digit then ones digit.she says that reversing the digits and subtracting the reversed number from the original number will always generate a number that is multiple of 9.
The reason is as follows: Let x be in 10th digit and y be in unit digit.
x>y
10x+y will be the place value.
If reversed we have 10y+x would be the value of the number
Difference would be
Hence this has to be a multiple of 9.
