Answer:

x = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

I don't know which one you are supposed to solve it by so I will do both.

Solution by Cross Multiplication

For the equation

7x=24

The cross product is

7×4=x×2

Solving for x

x=7×42

and reducing

x=14

Solution by Proportion

Since the equation is an equality

7 ÷ 2 = 3.5

Then it is true that

x ÷ 4 = 3.5

Solving for x

x = 4 × 3.5

x = 14
