Answer :

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First you need to use your information to set up a proportion.  (put your parts over the wholes and a variable in the blank spot.

part       part

whole     whole

2   6

x    150

Now you use the butterfly method, cross multiply the numerator and denominator and then divide that answer by the remaining numerator or denominator.  This will give you the missing value for your variable.

150 x 2 = 300     300 ÷ 6 = 50
