Answer:

must be multiplied by 1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

3/2 or 1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

2/3x = 16

2/3x * y = x

x÷2/3x = 3/2 = 1.5

16 * y = 24

24 / 16 = 3/2 = 1.5

3/2 is equal to decimal 1.5

A number times its reciprocal (numerator and denominator flipped)is 1

EX.

3/2 * 2/3 = 1

7/1 * 1/7 = 1

The answer is 3/2

Hope this helps :)
