I don’t understand this I would like some help plz!!!

Answer 1

So basically, these questions want you to find the variable x, which you can do by isolating the variable.

3) x * 1/2 = 1/3 <-- To isolate the x in this case, you want to divide both sides by 1/2, aka multiply by 2.

x = 2/3

4) x * 3 = 2 <-- To isolate x, you want to divide both sides by 3

x = 2/3

5) 1/4 * x = 1/6 <-- To isolate x, you want to divide both sides by 1/4, aka multiply by 4.

x = 4/6 = 2/3

6) 4 1/2 * x = 1 1/2 <-- First, let's make these into improper fractions

9/2 * x = 3/2 <-- To isolate x, you want to divide both sides by 9/2, or multiply both sides by 2/9

x = 6/18 = 2/3
