QUESTION:

what is x/9 = 9/27 help plz

ANSWER AND SOLUTION:

  • SOLVING FOR X

Reduce first the fraction with 9


\large \sf = (x)/(9) = \frac{ \cancel9}{ \cancel{27}}


\large \sf = (x)/(9) = (1)/(3)

Now simplify using cross-multiply


\large \sf = (3x)/(9) = 1


\large \sf = 3x = 1 * 9


\large \sf = 3x = 9

Lastly divide both sides


\large \sf = 3x / 3 = 9 / 3


\large \sf = x = 9 / 3


\large \sf = x = 3

FINAL ANSWER:


\huge \orange{ \underline{ \boxed{ \sf{x = 3}}}}

HOPE THIS HELP YOU! HAVE A NICE DAY!
