1. If the question is: (2/3)x=10 The question can be rewritten as follows:
(2x)/3=10 Multiple both sides by 3, getting
2x=30 Divide both sides by 2. We have:
x=15 The answer is: x=15
2. If the quetion is 2/(3x)=10 Multiple both sides by 3x, getting
2=30x Divide both sices by 30, getting
2/30=x Swap sides.
x=2/30 Reduce the fraction to the simplest, dividing both the numerator and denominator by common factor 2. We have:
x=1/15 The answer is: x=1/15
