Question

3x/4=6/5 solve the equation for x

Answer 1

x = 24/15 or 1.6 or 1 3/5

Explanation:

3x/4 = 6/5

3x = 24/5 multiply both sides with 4

15x = 24 multiply both sides with 5

x = 24/15 divide both sides with 15

Answer 2

x = 8/5

Explanation:

3x/4 = 6/5

15x = 24 (Use the common denominator 20. After everything is under 20, it doesn't really matter if you have it in the equation.)

x = 24/15

x = 8/5
