Question

Hey guy’s question 1/5 = 15/x so…. X = 3 am i right can sb verify

Answer 1

x = 75

Explanation:

Given the equation:

`\displaystyle{(1)/(5) = (15)/(x)}`

Multiply both sides by 5x to clear off denominators:

`\displaystyle{(1)/(5)\cdot 5x = (15)/(x) \cdot 5x}\\\\\displaystyle{1\cdot x = 15\cdot 5}\\\\\displaystyle{x=75}`

Therefore, x = 75
