\frac{12}{x}=\frac{12}{1000000}
Divide both sides by 1000000.
\frac{12}{x}=\frac{3}{250000}
Reduce the fraction \frac{12}{1000000} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 4.
250000\times 12=3x
Variable x cannot be equal to 0 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by 250000x, the least common multiple of x,250000.
3000000=3x
Multiply 250000 and 12 to get 3000000.
3x=3000000
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
x=\frac{3000000}{3}
Divide both sides by 3.
x=1000000
Divide 3000000 by 3 to get 1000000.
