Question

Complete the statement.

If$\frac{k}{m}=\frac{2}{3},$then$\frac{k+m}{m}=\frac{?}{?}$

Short answer

The final answer is, $\frac{k+m}{m}=\frac{5}{3}$.

Step-by-step solution

Step 1. Given information.

The given proportion is,

$\frac{k}{m}=\frac{2}{3}$

Step 2. Add 1 both sides. 

It is given that$\frac{k}{m}=\frac{2}{3}$,

Then$\frac{k}{m}+1=\frac{2}{3}+1$,

Step 3. The given proportion is equivalent to.

$\frac{k+m}{m}=\frac{2+3}{3}=\frac{5}{3}$

So, we get,

$\frac{k+m}{m}=\frac{5}{3}$

Therefore, the final answer is,$\frac{k+m}{m}=\frac{5}{3}$ .
