Solve 10/15=0.005/x

$$\frac{ 10 }{ 15 } = \frac{ 0.005 }{ x }$$

Solve for x

$$x=0.0075$$

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 15x, the least common multiple of 15,x.

$$x\times 10=15\times 0.005$$

Multiply 15 and 0.005 to get 0.075.

$$x\times 10=0.075$$

Divide both sides by 10.

$$x=\frac{0.075}{10}$$

Expand \frac{0.075}{10} by multiplying both numerator and the denominator by 1000.

$$x=\frac{75}{10000}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{75}{10000} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 25.

$$x=\frac{3}{400}$$
