Solve 73/44=509*73%/x

$$\frac { 73 } { 44 } = \frac { 509 \times 73 \% } { x }$$

Solve for x

$$x = \frac{5599}{25} = 223\frac{24}{25} = 223.96$$

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 44x, the least common multiple of 44,x.

$$73x=44\times 509\times \frac{73}{100}$$

Multiply 44 and 509 to get 22396.

$$73x=22396\times \frac{73}{100}$$

Express 22396\times \frac{73}{100} as a single fraction.

$$73x=\frac{22396\times 73}{100}$$

Multiply 22396 and 73 to get 1634908.

$$73x=\frac{1634908}{100}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{1634908}{100} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 4.

$$73x=\frac{408727}{25}$$

Divide both sides by 73.

$$x=\frac{\frac{408727}{25}}{73}$$

Express \frac{\frac{408727}{25}}{73} as a single fraction.

$$x=\frac{408727}{25\times 73}$$

Multiply 25 and 73 to get 1825.

$$x=\frac{408727}{1825}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{408727}{1825} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 73.

$$x=\frac{5599}{25}$$
