Since the denominators are 5 and 3, we just need to multiply 7 * 5/3, like this:



(5)/(3) * 7 = 11.66


So the answer is: 11.66, or 11 2/3.


Hope this helped! c:

x/5 = 7/3


Cross multiply:

3x = 35


Divide by 3 on both sides:

x = 35/3


Change to mixed number:

x = 11 2/3


Answer: x = 11 2/3
