Solve (x):2/5=45/1:3/3

$$( x ) : \frac { 2 } { 5 } = \frac { 45 } { 1 } : \frac { 3 } { 3 }$$

Solve for x

$$x=18$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Divide \frac{45}{1} by \frac{3}{3} by multiplying \frac{45}{1} by the reciprocal of \frac{3}{3}.

$$\frac{x}{\frac{2}{5}}=\frac{45\times 3}{3}$$

Cancel out 3 and 3.

$$\frac{x}{\frac{2}{5}}=45$$

Multiply both sides by \frac{2}{5}.

$$x=45\times \frac{2}{5}$$

Express 45\times \frac{2}{5} as a single fraction.

$$x=\frac{45\times 2}{5}$$

Multiply 45 and 2 to get 90.

$$x=\frac{90}{5}$$

Divide 90 by 5 to get 18.

$$x=18$$
