We have that an inverse variation in a function is given by:
 y = k / x

 We must find the value of the constant k.
 To do this, we substitute the values of x1 = 12, y1 = 15.
 We have then:
 15 = k / 12

 Clearing k we have:
 k = (15) * (12)

k = 180
 Substituting the value of k we have that the inverse variation is:
 y = 180 / x

 For y2 = 3 we have:
 3 = 180 / x2

 Clearing x2 we have:
 x2 = 180/3
 x2 = 60
 Answer:
 
x2 = 60

What is 650/1000 in simplest form
just olya [345]
When you simplify a fraction, remember to perform the same operation on both the numerator and the denominator, and that there may not be a decimal or a fraction as a numerator or denominator.
You could always start by dividing with the largest common factor that you can recall off the top of your head. I'll use 10 as an example. 
650/10 = 65. 1000/10 = 100.
You have now simplified the fraction down to 65/100. But wait! You can simplify this fraction down further. I'll use 5 now. 65/5 = 13. 100/5 = 20. You have simplified it down to 13/20. Because you know that 13 is a prime number, you know you have written the fraction in simplest form.
Hope that helped you!
(Hint: Use divisibility rules to help you divide faster.)
