9/56 is already in its simplest form. You CANNOT make it more reduced than this
<span>87 less than the quotient of an unknown number and 43 is -75
Converting that to mathematical equation:
87 - (x / 43) = -75
Evaluating the equation, we can the value of x.
87 - (x/43) = -75
-x/43 = -75 - 87
-x/43 = -162
-x = -6966
x = 6966</span>
