Answer 2

Answer:

x= 40.5

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find out what x is. Therefore, we must get x by itself on one side of the equation.

2/3x= 27

2/3 and x are being multiplied. The inverse of multiplication is division. Divide both sides of the equation by 2/3.

2/3x / 2/3 = 27/ 2/3

When dividing by a fraction, you can also multiply by the reciprocal of the fraction.

To find the reciprocal, flip the numerator (top number) and denominator( bottom number)

2/3 —> 3/2

Multiply both sides of the equation by 3/2

2/3x *3/2 = 27*3/2

x= 27*3/2

x= 27/1*3/2

x= (27*3)/(1*2)

x= 81/2

x= 40.5
