Question

0.25 divided by 3=x divided by 1 1/2

Answer 1

X=1/6

Explanation:

To solve for x in the equation 0.25 divided by 3 equals x divided by 1 1/2, you can set up a proportion and solve for x.

The equation is:

0.25 / 3 = x / 1 1/2

First, convert 1 1/2 to an improper fraction, which is 3/2.

Now, the equation becomes:

0.25 / 3 = x / 3/2

To solve for x, cross-multiply:

0.25 * 2 = 3 * x

0.5 = 3x

Now, divide both sides by 3 to isolate x:

x = 0.5 / 3

x = 1/6

So, x is equal to 1/6 in this equation.
