Step-by-step explanation:

From the figure,

AB = 2

BC = 3

AD = 6

Substitute in the given formula

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{AB}{BC} =\frac{AD}{DE} \\\\\frac{2}{3} = \frac{6}{DE} \\\\Cross \ Multiply \\\\2 \times DE = 6 \times 3\\\\2DE = 18\\\\Divide \ 2 \ to \ both \ sides\\\\DE = 18/2\\\\DE = 9\\\\\rule[225]{225}{2}[/tex]
