Let's solve the problem given to us today! The problem is the following:


\mapsto\quad\bf{\cfrac{9x}{7}=18}

We need to solve for x.

__________________________________________________________

To solve for x, isolate it on one side of the equation.

__________________________________________________________

Multiply both sides by 7


\mapsto\quad\bf{9x=18*7}


\mapsto\quad\bf{9x=126}

Divide both sides by 9:


\mapsto\quad\bf{x=14}

Therefore, x = 14.

Answer:

x = 14

Explanation:

given


(9x)/(7) = 18

multiply both sides by 7 to clear the fraction

7 ×
(9x)/(7) = 7 × 18 ( simplify )

9x = 126 ( divide both sides by 9 )


(9)/(9) x =
(126)/(9) , then

x = 14
