Question

What is the proportion of 36 / x equals 8/7

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply all terms by the same value to eliminate fraction denominators

36/x=8/7

x times 36/x=x times 8/7

Cancel multiplied terms that are in the denominator

cancel both x’s for you should have 36=x times 8/7

Combine multiplied terms into a single fraction

36=8x/7

Multiply all terms by the same value to eliminate fraction denominators

36=8x/7 so you multiply 7 times 36=7 times 8x/7

so you simplify so you get 252=8x

then you Divide both sides of the equation by the same term

252=8x     252/8=8x/8 so you get 63/2

so your final answer is x=63/2
