Given the following equation:


(3)/(4)=(a)/(36)

You need to solve for "a" in order to find its value. You can do it applying the steps shown below:

1. You can apply the Multiplication property of equality by multiplying both sides of the equation by 36:


\begin{gathered} ((3)/(4))(36)=((a)/(36))(36) \\ \\ (108)/(4)=a \end{gathered}

2. Finally, you need divide the numerator 108 by the denominator 4. Then, you get the following result:


a=27

The answer is: Option B and Option D.
