solve for x 5/4=x/12

Sagot :

x = 15. You can do this by multiplying both sides by 12. When you do this your equation will look like this...

60/4 = x

Finally, all you need to do is simplify :)

x = 15
5 / 4 = x / 12

Common denominator ⇒ 12

Cross multiply.

(5) × (12 )= x × (4)

60 = 4x

divide both sides by 4

60 = 4x
/4      /4

x = 15.
