2x/21=12/18
Use cross multiply
2x(18)=21×12
36x=252
Divided 36 for both side
36x/36=252/36
x=7. As a result, x=7 is your final answer. Hope it help!

You can use something called crossed multiplication (not sure the official name but something like that) basically when you have 2 fractions that equal to each other, you can multiply the numerator on the left-hand side with the denominator on the friction on the right side. and repeat the same with the numerator on the right side and multiply it by the denominator on the left. that way, there will be no more fractions and will just leave you simple algebraic equations.
so in here2x / 21 = 12 / 18 252 = 36x x = 7

1 over 4a = 2 over 3. Which of the following equals a in this equation?
dlinn [17]

Answer:

3/8

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is given as:

1/4*a=2/3

We can simply the equation by getting rid of the denominators which is 4a and 3. Therefore we can multiply both sides with 3*4*a:

(1/4*a)3*4*a=(2/3)*3*4*a

On the left hand side 4a cancels with 4a and on the right hand side 3 cancels with 3. We are left with:

3=2*4*a

∴ After simplying

a=3/8
