Question

2/x =3/4 what is x? im doing a math test help

Answer 1

`x=(3)/(4)`

Explanation:

First, we know we want to get x all by itself. So, let's multiply it by 2.

`(2)/(x)(2) = (3)/(4)(2)\\`

Then we have:

`x=(3)/(4)(2)`

Now, we have to simplify the right side of the equation, so, let's rewrite it.

`x=(3*2)/(4*2)`

All we have to do now is simplify.

`x=(6)/(8)`

Luckily (and ironically) both the numerator and denominator are divisible by 2, so...

`x=(3)/(4)`

I hope this helps!

Answer 2

X=8/3 or 2.666 is the answer
