4 0

$\dfrac{2}{3} x^2 = 24$

---------------------------------------------------------------------
Divide by 2/3 on both sides :
---------------------------------------------------------------------
$x^2 = 24 \div \dfrac{2}{3}$

---------------------------------------------------------------------
Change the divide fraction to multiplication fraction :
---------------------------------------------------------------------
$x^2 = 24 \times \dfrac{3}{2}$

---------------------------------------------------------------------
Simplify :
---------------------------------------------------------------------
$x^2 = 36$

---------------------------------------------------------------------
Square root both sides :
---------------------------------------------------------------------
$x = \pm \sqrt{36}$

---------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer :
---------------------------------------------------------------------
$x = \pm6$

---------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: The smallest possible value of x is -6
---------------------------------------------------------------------
