Full solution

Q. Solve for r r .\newline4r5r+6=16r= \begin{array}{l} \frac{4 r}{5 r+6}=\frac{1}{6} \\ r=\square \end{array}
  1. Set up the equation: Set up the equation.\newlineWe are given the equation (4r5r+6)=16(\frac{4r}{5r+6}) = \frac{1}{6}. We need to solve for rr.
  2. Cross-multiply to eliminate the fractions: Cross-multiply to eliminate the fractions.\newlineMultiply both sides of the equation by (5r+6)6(5r+6)\cdot 6 to get rid of the denominators.\newline4r5r+6(5r+6)6=16(5r+6)6\frac{4r}{5r+6} \cdot (5r+6) \cdot 6 = \frac{1}{6} \cdot (5r+6) \cdot 6
  3. Simplify both sides of the equation: Simplify both sides of the equation.\newlineOn the left side, (5r+6)(5r+6) cancels out, and on the right side, 66 cancels out with 16\frac{1}{6}.\newline4r×6=5r+64r \times 6 = 5r + 6
  4. Distribute the 66 on the left side: Distribute the 66 on the left side.24r=5r+624r = 5r + 6
  5. Subtract 5r5r from both sides: Subtract 5r5r from both sides to get all rr terms on one side.\newline24r5r=5r5r+624r - 5r = 5r - 5r + 6\newline19r=619r = 6
  6. Divide both sides by 1919: Divide both sides by 1919 to solve for rr.r=619r = \frac{6}{19}
