    Step-by-step explanation:

    From the question, Tom paid $16 for 6 audio cassettes and we are told to find the proportion to get the amount of money (m) he would pay for 9 audio cassettes. To get this, we have to know the amount of the cost of 1 audio cassette. Since Tom paid $16 for 6 audio cassettes, 1 audio cassette will cost:

    = $16/6

    = $2.67

    1 audio cassette will cost $2.67

    The amount of money spent will depend on the number of audio cassettes. Therefore,

    m = $2.67 * n

    m = $2.67n

    where n = number of audio cassette

    The amount of money he'll pay for 9 cassette will be:

    m = $2.67n

    m = $2.67 * 9

    m = $24.03
