We want to solve for x the following equation


3x=2.7

To solve this, we can divide both sides by 3. To divide 2.7 by 3, first, let's multiply both numbers by 10.


(2.7)/(3)=(27)/(30)

Now, we can divide both numerator and denominator by 3


(27)/(30)=(27/3)/(30/3)=(9)/(10)

Now it is easy. To divide by 10 is the same as "moving" the dot to the left.


(9)/(10)=0.9

Then


x=0.9
