Answer:


\boxed{ \sf \; x = 192}

Explanation:

Given equation:


\tt \: 16 = \cfrac{x}{12}

We need to find the value of x.

Solution:


\tt \implies16 = \cfrac{x}{12}

Multiply both sides by 12:


\tt \implies16 * \sf12 = \tt \cfrac{x}{12} \sf * 12

Multiply the LHS:


\tt \implies192 = \cfrac{x}{12} * \sf12

Now, Cancel the RHS:

  • Cancel 12(which is on the denominator) and cancel 12(which is multiplied by x/12):


\tt \implies192 = \cfrac{x}{ \cancel{12}} * \cancel{12}


\tt \implies192 = \cfrac{x}{1} * 1


\tt \implies192 = x

Flip the equation:


\implies \tt \: x = 192

We're done!

Hence, the value of x would be 192.
