Answer:
The second amount is 3.72
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]First : Second = 8 : 3[/tex]
[tex]First = 9.92[/tex]
Required
Find Second
[tex]First : Second = 8 : 3[/tex]
Substitute 9.92 for First
[tex]9.92: Second = 8 : 3[/tex]
Express as fraction
[tex]\frac{Second}{9.92} = \frac{3}{8}[/tex]
Multiply both sides by 9.92
[tex]9.92 * \frac{Second}{9.92} = \frac{3}{8}*9.92[/tex]
[tex]Second = \frac{3}{8}*9.92[/tex]
[tex]Second = 3.72[/tex]
