18 = (240/100) x what;
what = 18 x (100/240);
what = 1800/240;
what = 7.5;
Step-by-step explanation: To solve for x in this literal equation, I would first distribute the C through the parentheses to get y = cx + cb.
Now subtract cb from both sides to get y - cb = cx.
Finally, divide both sides by c to get y - cb / c = x.
