Answer:

Explanation:

Answer: An infinite number

Multiply both sides of the equation by 12

12 [ 3/4 (24 - 16x) = - 2/3 (18x - 27) ]

3*3(24 - 16x) = - 2 * 4 (18x - 27)

9 ( 24 - 16x) = - 8(18x - 27)

Remove the brackets.

216 - 144x = - 144x + 216

Any value for x will preserve the equality. Nice problem.
