Step-by-step explanation:

Denominator =X

Numerator = X-12

Fraction = (X-12)/X

⇛(X-12)/X = 3/5

⇛5(X-12) = 3X

⇛5X-60 = 3X

⇛5X-3X = 60

⇛2X = 60

⇛X = 60/2

⇛X = 30

Denominator = 30

Numerator = 30-12 = 18

The fraction before simplified = 18/30

Please let me know if you have any other questions.

Anastasy [175]

Answer: 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A metallurgist wants to study four different fluxes, two different base metals, and three different amounts of energy input.

i.e. 4 different choices for fluxes.

2 different choices for base metals.

3 different choices for amounts of energy input.

If each run of the experiment involves a choice of one flux, one base metal, and one amount of energy input.

Then , the number of runs are possible :-

4\times2\times3=24

Hence, there are 24 different runs are possible .
