Question

X/6 = 3x/4 i need an explanation on how you answer this​

Answer 1

0

Explanation:

x/6=3x/4

cross product

6*3x=x*4

18x=4x

18x-4x=0

14x=0

x=0/14

x=0

Answer 2

`x=0`

Explanation:

We can solve this equation using cross multiplication (multiply the numerator of one fraction by the denominator of the other and vice versa):

`(x)/(6)=(3x)/(4)`

`x*4=3x*6`

`4x=18x`

There is only one possible solution for x in which any number multiplied by x is equivalent...

`x=0` (Any number multiplied by 0 is 0)

OR (algebraic way)

`4x=18x\\\text{Subtract 4x from both sides}\\0=18x-4x\\0=14x\\\text{Divide both sides by 14}\\x=0`
