Question

`(x)/(5) = (7)/(3)`
I need help with x.

Answer 1

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:

Answer 2

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
