\frac{1.45}{x}=\frac{2.99}{100}
Divide both sides by 100.
\frac{1.45}{x}=\frac{299}{10000}
Expand \frac{2.99}{100} by multiplying both numerator and the denominator by 100.
10000\times 1.45=299x
Variable x cannot be equal to 0 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by 10000x, the least common multiple of x,10000.
14500=299x
Multiply 10000 and 1.45 to get 14500.
299x=14500
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
x=\frac{14500}{299}
Divide both sides by 299.
