Please please please help!!!!!!!!! I’m not good with fractions

Answer 1

x = 84

Explanation:

21 = 1/4x ....multiply both sides by 4

4 * 21 = (1/4 * 4/1)x

84 = 1x or just 84 = x

28 = 1/3x...multiply both sides by 3

3 * 28 = (1/3 * 3/1)x

84 = 1x or just 84 = x

Answer 2

Yes

Explanation:

21= 1/4 x

21* 4 = x

x = 84

28 = 1/3x

28*3 = x

x = 84
