Answer:

The value of x is 2

Given:


$(10)/(20)=(1)/(x)$

Solution:

In this problem, we need to find the value of ‘x’ which is a variable. The variable is a quantity where the value is assumed or the value changes according to the problem.

Usually, the value of the variable is determined with the help of constants where the parameters never changes in any of the problem.

Now, we need to bring the variable on one side and constants on another side in the given problem.


$\Rightarrow x=(20)/(10) * 1$

On cancelling the values,


$\therefore x=2$
