Answer:

21/5 or 4 1/5

Explanation:

Rewrite your equation.

7/5 = x/3

Multiply 3 to both sides of the equation.

3/1(7/5) = x

Simplify.

21/5 = x

Based on if you are supposed to leave the answer as an improper fraction, or have it be a mixed number, the answer would either be:

x = 21/5

or

x = 4 1/5
