Answer:

x=bc

Explanation:

Given equation:
\[(x)/(b)=c\]

In order to find the value of x , let us multiply both sides of the equation by b.


\[(x)/(b)*b=c*b\]

The b in the numerator and denominator on the left hand side cancel out.

=>
\[x=bc\]

Validation:

Substituting the value of x on the left hand side of the equation:

=
\[(bc)/(b)\]

=
c

= Right Hand Side of the equation
