Answer:

3 & 4

Explanation:

Given


(2)/(3)x = 10

Required

Determine the number of ways to solve for x

From the list of given options, (1), (2) & (5) are incorrect, as they won't give the solution to the value of x

Option (3) is correct: See below


(2)/(3)x/(2)/(3) = 10/(2)/(3)


(2)/(3)x*(3)/(2) = 10 * (3)/(2)


x = 10 * (3)/(2)


x = (30)/(2)


x = 15

Option (4) is also correct: See below


(2)/(3)x*(3)/(2) = 10 * (3)/(2)


x = 10 * (3)/(2)


x = (30)/(2)


x = 15
