Answer:
box = 30
Step-by-step explanation:
You could set this up very formally as a proportion. It would look like this.
1/5 = 6/x
Now all you have to do is cross multiiply.
1*x = 5 * 6
x = 30
So the answer that goes in the box is 30
Or you could just say to yourself. "The 1 was multiplied by 6. What do I have to multiply the 5 by to keep the ratio the same?"
The answer is 6
6 * 5 = 30
In higher math you are going to want to use the first method.
