Solve 3x/5=9/11

$$\frac { 3 x } { 5 } = \frac { 9 } { 11 }$$

Solve for x

$$x = \frac{15}{11} = 1\frac{4}{11} \approx 1.363636364$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Multiply both sides by 5.

$$3x=\frac{9}{11}\times 5$$

Express \frac{9}{11}\times 5 as a single fraction.

$$3x=\frac{9\times 5}{11}$$

Multiply 9 and 5 to get 45.

$$3x=\frac{45}{11}$$

Divide both sides by 3.

$$x=\frac{\frac{45}{11}}{3}$$

Express \frac{\frac{45}{11}}{3} as a single fraction.

$$x=\frac{45}{11\times 3}$$

Multiply 11 and 3 to get 33.

$$x=\frac{45}{33}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{45}{33} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 3.

$$x=\frac{15}{11}$$
