Answer 4

To simplify, just solve for x.

2/3x = 54

the 2/3 is being multiplied to the x, so you divide it to get it to the opposite side of the equal sign.

x = 54 divided by 2/3

but you need to make 2/3 a decimal, and it is .6 repeated, or .7 if you decide to round.

x = 54 / 0.7

Now divide 0.7 into 54 and you have the x.

x = 77.1428

a.k.a.

x = 77.143

What do you think it is now?
