Can someone help me solve this proportion?

\[
\frac{5}{n} = \frac{1.5}{1.8}
\]

5/n = 1.5/1.8
Multiply each side by 'n':
5= 1.5n/1.8
Multiply each side by 1.8 :
9 = 1.5n
Divide each side by 1.5 :
6 = n =====<=======<== Easier:
5/n = 1.5/1.8
Perform the division on the right side:
5/n = 5/6
Multiply each side by 'n' :
5 = 5n/6
Multiply each side by 6 :
30 = 5n
Divide each side by 5 :
6 = n
