Question

x 1/6
--- = ----
1/3 x

Answer 1

hmm.. i think u want to solve this for x... but to do that it would be better to simplify the both sides first ..

first consider the left hand side
so.. the left hand side simplifies into 3x
now if u consider the right hand side

now u will get ur new equation as...
\[\frac{ 1 }{ 6x } = 3x \]
now do the cross multiplication
\[18x^{2} = 1\]\[x^{2} = \frac{ 1 }{ 18 }\]\[x = \pm \sqrt{\frac{ 1 }{ 18 }}\]
hope this will help ya :)
