Question

Solve the proportion​

Answer 1

`\boxed{\sf{{x=(8)/(5)=1.6}}}`

Explanation:

All you have to do to solve this is isolate the term of x from one side of the equation.

`\sf{(x)/(4)=(2)/(5) }`

First, you multiply by 4 from both sides.

`\sf{(4x)/(4)=(2*4)/(5) }`

Then, solve.

`\sf{2*4=8}`

`\sf{=(8)/(5) }`

Also, you can divide.

8/5=1.6

Therefore, the answer is 8/5=1.6
