Solve 2/27:x=1/81

$$\frac { 2 } { 27 } : x = \frac { 1 } { 81 }$$

Solve for x

$$x=6$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Variable x cannot be equal to 0 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by 81x, the least common multiple of x,81.

$$81\times \frac{2}{27}=x$$

Express 81\times \frac{2}{27} as a single fraction.

$$\frac{81\times 2}{27}=x$$

Multiply 81 and 2 to get 162.

$$\frac{162}{27}=x$$

Divide 162 by 27 to get 6.

$$6=x$$

Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.

$$x=6$$
