Question

Help me plzzzz...... .

Answer 1

x = 4.5 so it is 3/-8 = 4.5/12

Answer 2

Answer:

x = $\frac{-36}{8}$ = -4.5

Step-by-step explanation:

WE are given with an equation and we have to solve it for the value of x

As the given equation is

$\frac{-3}{8}=\frac{x}{12}$

For this we have to use the rule of cross multiplication which states that

if we have two fractions such that

$\frac{x}{y}=\frac{a}{b}$

then by cross multiplication

b * x = a * y

so similarly for the given equation we have

$\frac{-3}{8}=\frac{x}{12}$

By cross multiplication

- 3 * 12 = 8 * x

multiplication gives

-36 = 8 x

Dividing both sides by 8

$\frac{-36}{8}=\frac{8x}{8}$

$\frac{-36}{8}=x$

So this is the answer in fraction in point form it would be

x = -4.5
