So just for sake, we'll convert the fraction with decimals to a one with whole numbers so it would be
(950)/(325) when converted.

Next we bring
x to the other side and we get
52 = (950)/(325) * x

Next bring the fraction to the other side and we get
(325)/(950) * 52 = x

When we evaluate the left hand side, we get
17.789 which when we round to the nearest tenth becomes
17.8
