Answer: 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up a proportion:

[tex]\frac{5}{6} = \frac{x}{24}[/tex]

Divide the larger denominator by the smaller one.

[tex]24[/tex] ÷ [tex]6 = 4[/tex]

Now, multiply 4 by the numerator we already have.

[tex]\frac{5}{y}[/tex] times [tex]\frac{4}{y}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{20}{y}[/tex]

Now, add the denominator back.

You get [tex]\frac{20}{24}[/tex]. Hope this helps you!
