Answer: y=156

You could set this up as a ratio. We would see it as x:y by to solve we would need to put it as 34:204. You would want to find what divided by 34 equals 1 to see what the value of y is when x is one. If you divide 34 on both sides you would see that x now equals one and would get the new ratio of 1:6. Now that you know y equals six when x equals one then you would multiply the equation on both sides by 26 to see how much y equals when x=26. The new ratio would become 26:156.
