8/x=14/7 what does x equal

Mathematics
1 answer:
Veronika [31]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

when you have two fractions that equal each other you want to solve by using cross multiply

What cross multiply is, is when you multiply diagonally so:

8/x=14/7

you would take 14*x and 8*7

14x=56 (you would then divide each side by 14)

x=4 (14/14=1, 56/14=4)

8/4=14/7

To check your work you could simplify

8/4=2

14/7=2

2=2, which is true

x=4

Hope this helps ;)
