One way to solve this problem is to cross multiply:
n/6 = 20/24
24n = 20 x 6
24n = 120
n = 5
Your answer should be n = 5. Hope that helps!

n/6 = 20/24. Cross multiply. 24n = 120. Divide both sides by 24.
n = 5.

n/6=20/24
First, simplify the fraction on the right. Both the numerator and denominator contain a common factor of 4, so cancel that out:
n/6=5/6
Now just multiply both sides by 6:
n=5
