$"m"=42/99$

To solve this problem you cross multiply as follows:

$color(blue)7/color(green)(9m)=color(green)11/color(blue)6$

$color(green)(9m)color(green)((11))=99"m"$

$color(blue)7color(blue)((6))=42$

Set them equal to each other and solve:

$99"m"=42$

$cancel((99)"m")/cancel99=42/99$

$"m"=42/99$

How do you solve \frac { 7} { 9m } = \frac { 11} { 6}\frac { 7} { 9m } = \frac { 11} { 6}?
