Answer:

x = 10

Explanation:

In the last step, you can see that the fraction
(1)/(5) has been multiplied by its reciprocal
(5)/(1), making it cancel out. The reciprocal has been multiplied to both sides, so all you need to do is multiply
(6)/(3) ·
(5)/(1) :

6 · 5 = 30

3 · 1 = 3

So now you should have the fraction:

x =
(30)/(3)

But, you can still simplify the fraction by dividing 30 by 3:

x = 10
