That equals 1 4/16 or 1 1/4.
X will equal 5
y will equal 0
Word form: Six over nine or two over three
Simpliest form: 2/3
One serving is 3/4 cups of rice. To find out how many serving there are in 12 cups of rice, you divide 12 by 3/4. (When dividing fractions, don't ask why. Flip the second one over and multiply).
12/(3/4) = 12 *(4/3) = 48/3 = 16
There are 16 servings of rices in 12 cups.
First you make -1 and 3/4 have a common denominator. 1 has a fraction of 1/1 so times four it is 4/4. Then you add on both sides in order to isolate x and you get 3/10x = 7/4.
Then you isolate x by multyiplying the reciprocal of 3/10 on both sides, 10/3.
3/10 and 10/3 cancel out and you get an answer of x = 70/4.
You could then simplify it to get 35/6 by finding a greasted common multiple of 12 and 70 which is 2 and dividing both by 2 to get a simpilier answer.
So the answer is x = 35/6
