Why do you need to get rid of it?
OpenStudy (renzonacino):
The fraction on the left
OpenStudy (renzonacino):
My bad xD
OpenStudy (renzonacino):
To find the height of cylinder
OpenStudy (agent0smith):
That doesn't change my question

I forgot how to get rid of it
OpenStudy (renzonacino):
Do I need to multiply both side by 5? to get rid of the 5?
OpenStudy (agent0smith):
Are you trying to solve for x?
36/5 pi = (9)(x)
You'd divide both sides by 9.
OpenStudy (renzonacino):
Yes
OpenStudy (renzonacino):
Let me check real quick

How do you divide it by 9?
OpenStudy (agent0smith):
Is this actually your equation, cos if not you need to clarify \[\Large \frac{ 36 \pi }{5 } = 9x\]
OpenStudy (renzonacino):
Yes, that's my actually equation
OpenStudy (agent0smith):
So divide both sides by 9. Dividing both sides by 9 is the same as multiplying by 1/9, so do that.
OpenStudy (renzonacino):
I get \[4\pi/5\]

OpenStudy (renzonacino):
I divide 36 by 9
OpenStudy (agent0smith):
yes
OpenStudy (renzonacino):
then x is 4pi/5
OpenStudy (renzonacino):
How am I going to put that to solve cylinder height? Volume=B(h)
OpenStudy (agent0smith):
I think you should start a new question, and post your actual question. Like the whole thing.
