x/9=1 (remember for later algebra, capitalization means there are 2 variables; just an FYI; ex. A/a are different variables)
I digress, x/9=1, to eliminate the x we must remove the nearest non-variable first(9) to do that, we do the opposite of the task the equation requests, this one requests we divide x by 9. multiple 9 on both sides to remove it.
x/9=1
x9 x9
x=9

x/9= 1
x is 9
you are going to use inverse of operations to get x on a side by itself. In this case all you need to do is multiply each side by 9, to cancel out the 9 on the side with the x. Once you do that you get x=9
x/9=1
*9 *9
x=9
