Answer:

w = [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]\frac{x}{y}[/tex] = 6 and x = 36 , then

[tex]\frac{36}{y}[/tex] = 6 ( multiply both sides by y )

36 = 6y ( divide both sides by 6 (

6 = y

Then

[tex]\frac{y}{w}[/tex] = 4 , that is

[tex]\frac{6}{w}[/tex] = 4 ( multiply both sides by w )

6 = 4w ( divide both sides by 4 )

[tex]\frac{6}{4}[/tex]  = w , that is

w = [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex]
