Solve 2x/7=4/35

$$\frac { 2 x } { 7 } = \frac { 4 } { 35 }$$

Solve for x

$$x=\frac{2}{5}=0.4$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Multiply both sides by 7.

$$2x=\frac{4}{35}\times 7$$

Express \frac{4}{35}\times 7 as a single fraction.

$$2x=\frac{4\times 7}{35}$$

Multiply 4 and 7 to get 28.

$$2x=\frac{28}{35}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{28}{35} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 7.

$$2x=\frac{4}{5}$$

Divide both sides by 2.

$$x=\frac{\frac{4}{5}}{2}$$

Express \frac{\frac{4}{5}}{2} as a single fraction.

$$x=\frac{4}{5\times 2}$$

Multiply 5 and 2 to get 10.

$$x=\frac{4}{10}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{4}{10} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 2.

$$x=\frac{2}{5}$$
