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 ;)

A recipe requires 3/4 cups of water targa has a measuring cup that is marked only in ounce but she knows that 8 ounces is equiva
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

6 ounces of water

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are asked to calculate the amount in ounce that would be added to the recipe.

From the question, we can see that the recipe requires 3/4 cups of water.

From the question also, we can also see that one cup equals 8 ounces.

Now to know the amount of water that is to be added, what we need to do is to simply multiply the fraction of water in the recipe by 8 ounces

This is equal to 3/4 * 8 = 6 ounces

Hence, she needs to add a total of 6 ounces of water to the recipe
