#g=6#

Refer to the explanation for the process.

Explanation:

Solve:

#color(blue)(9)/color(blue)g=color(red)15/color(red)10#

Cross multiply each denominator by the opposite numerator.

#color(blue)9xxcolor(red)10=color(red)15xxcolor(blue)g#

Simplify.

#90=15g#

Divide both sides by #15#

#90/15=g#

Simplify.

#6=g#

Switch sides.

#g=6#
