Answer:

Oh easy...

Explanation:

Multiply the numerator on the left by the denominator on the right, and the numerator on the right by the denominator on the left, to solve a proportion. Cross multiplying is the term for this. Simplify the equation, then solve for the variable using the inverse operation, division.
