Hi again Natalie

We have 7/8 x = 21

All you have to do is cross multiplication

7 * x = 8*21

7x = 168

x= 168/7

x= 24

I hope that's help:)


Now if you want you can also check if the answer is correct

7/8 24 = 21 ( replace x by 24)

7*24 = 8*21

168 = 168

Yes the answer is correct and I hope its help:)
