Question

Solve for x
(5/6)x = 30

Answer 1

x = 24.9?

Answer 2

if it is like the following \[\frac{ 5 }{ 6 }x = 30\] then you can just divide both sides on 5/6

Answer 3

5/6 = .83

30 x .83 = 24.9

Answer 4

Thanks @Arcadiouse :) but I think they want it in fraction form. And ohhh I see @Will.H thank you so mcuh

Answer 5

24 9/10

Answer 6

SO it would be 30/1 / 5/6 and I have to find their least common denominator before dividing right? @Will.H

Answer 7

SO the answer would be x=6 right? That's what I got @Will.H

Answer 8

if you divide 30 on 5/6 the answer youd get is 36 and to check that if correct or not you should substitute x = 36 in the original equation so therefor
\[\frac{ 5 }{ 6 } * 36 = 30\]
\[30 = 30\] \
which confirms that x = 36 is a correct answer for the equation hope that helps

Answer 9

oh ok, thank you
can i ask one more question? @Will.H
