Question

What number should both sides of the following equation be multiplied by to solve for x?

Answer 1

we are given

$\frac{x}{7.25} =4$

Since, we have to solve for x

so, we will isolate x on anyone side

Since, 7.25 is in denominator of x

so, we will get rid of 7.25 from denominator

that's why we will multiply both sides 7.25 to get rid of denominator

so, we get

$7.25*\frac{x}{7.25} =7.25*4$

$x =29$

so,

Answer is 7.25
