Step 1.2.1

Factor

10

$10$ out of

100

$100$ .

\frac{35}{b} = \frac{10 \cdot 7}{10 \cdot 10}

$\frac{35}{b} = \frac{10 \cdot 7}{10 \cdot 10}$

Step 1.2.2

Cancel the common factor.

$\frac{35}{b} = \frac{10 \cdot 7}{10 \cdot 10}$

Step 1.2.3

Rewrite the expression.

$\frac{35}{b} = \frac{7}{10}$

Step 2

Multiply the numerator of the first fraction by the denominator of the second fraction. Set this equal to the product of the denominator of the first fraction and the numerator of the second fraction.

$35 \cdot 10 = b \cdot 7$
