EXPLANATION

Let's call x to the square:

The first equation is:


(4)/(5)\cdot x=28

We need to isolate x, how can we do it?

Multiplying both sides by 5/4:


(4)/(5)\cdot(5)/(4)\cdot x=28\cdot(5)/(4)

Multiplying the numerators:


x=(140)/(4)

Simplifying the fraction:


x=35

The solution is 35

In the second equation:


(3)/(10)\cdot x=(57)/(10)

Multiplying both sides by 10/3:


x=(10)/(3)\cdot(57)/(10)=

Multiplying terms:


x=(570)/(30)

Simplifying:


x=19

The solution is 19

In the third equation:


(5)/(9)\cdot x=15

Multiplying both sides by 9/5:


x=(9)/(5)\cdot15

Multiplying numerators and denominators:


x=(135)/(5)

Simplifying:


x=27

In the fourth equation:


(3)/(16)\cdot x=(63)/(16)

Multiplying both sides by 16/3:


x=(63)/(16)\cdot(16)/(3)

Multiplying terms:


x=(1008)/(48)

Simplifying:


x=21

The solution is 21
