the third one is multiply, can look like * and "x"
the fourth one is divide, can look like "/"
hope this helps
3/1 is the slope............,
Area for a triangle is (1/2) bh or bh/2
So using this info, b = 1.5 m and h = x and A = 1.5 m^2
A = bh/2
1.5 = 1.5x/2
Multiply both sides by 2 to get rid of fraction ... 3 = 1.5x
Divide both sides by 1.5 ... 2 = x so x= 1.5 m
