Solve 18=45/x*100

$$18 = \frac { 45 } { x } \times 100$$

Solve for x

$$x=250$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Divide both sides by 100.

$$\frac{18}{100}=\frac{45}{x}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{18}{100} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 2.

$$\frac{9}{50}=\frac{45}{x}$$

Variable x cannot be equal to 0 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by 50x, the least common multiple of 50,x.

$$9x=50\times 45$$

Multiply 50 and 45 to get 2250.

$$9x=2250$$

Divide both sides by 9.

$$x=\frac{2250}{9}$$

Divide 2250 by 9 to get 250.

$$x=250$$
