Answer:


x = 3

Explanation:


72 / x = 3.6 / 0.015\\\\(72)/(x) = (3.6)/(0.015)\\\\

Cross multiply and reduce to lowest possible terms


(72)/(x) = (3.6)/(0.015)\\\\x = (72 * 0.015)/(3.6)\\\\x = (72 * 15)/(360)\\\\x = (72 * 5)/(120)

(Reduced 15 and 360 by 3)


x = (3 * 5)/(5)

(Reduced 72 and 120 by 24)


x = 3

(cancelled out 5 in both numerator and denominator)
