First, you must use a factor tree to find the prime factors of the number.
12
/ \
6 (2)
/ \
(3) (2)
2 , 2 and 3 are the prime factors that make 12
2 x 2 x 3= 12
Or
2^2 x 3= 12
It'll be the opposite reciprocal in front of the X like instead of 3 it will be -1/3 so flip it and change the sign
Divide by 1.8
x = around 35.56
