x = wz/y

Step-by-step explanation:
(w)/(x)=(y)/(z)

To solve for x, first we need to cross multiply:


w* z\text{ = x }* y

Now we make x the subject of the formula:


\begin{gathered} To\text{ make x stand alone, we n}ed\text{ to remove any other variable around x} \\ \text{divide both sides by y}\colon \\ (w* z)/(y)\text{ =}\frac{\text{ x }* y}{y} \end{gathered}
x\text{ = }(wz)/(y)
