Solve 160/150*2%=112/x

$$\frac{ 160 }{ 150 \times 2 \% } = \frac{ 112 }{ x }$$

Solve for x

$$x = \frac{21}{10} = 2\frac{1}{10} = 2.1$$

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 x.

$$\frac{1}{3}x\times 160=112$$

Multiply \frac{1}{3} and 160 to get \frac{160}{3}.

$$\frac{160}{3}x=112$$

Multiply both sides by \frac{3}{160}, the reciprocal of \frac{160}{3}.

$$x=112\times \frac{3}{160}$$

Express 112\times \frac{3}{160} as a single fraction.

$$x=\frac{112\times 3}{160}$$

Multiply 112 and 3 to get 336.

$$x=\frac{336}{160}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{336}{160} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 16.

$$x=\frac{21}{10}$$
