Solve 300=8/1215/100x

$$300 = \frac{ 8 }{ 12 } \frac{ 15 }{ 100 } x$$

Solve for x

$$x=3000$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Reduce the fraction \frac{8}{12} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 4.

$$300=\frac{2}{3}\times \frac{15}{100}x$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{15}{100} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 5.

$$300=\frac{2}{3}\times \frac{3}{20}x$$

Multiply \frac{2}{3} times \frac{3}{20} by multiplying numerator times numerator and denominator times denominator.

$$300=\frac{2\times 3}{3\times 20}x$$

Cancel out 3 in both numerator and denominator.

$$300=\frac{2}{20}x$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{2}{20} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 2.

$$300=\frac{1}{10}x$$

Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.

$$\frac{1}{10}x=300$$

Multiply both sides by 10, the reciprocal of \frac{1}{10}.

$$x=300\times 10$$

Multiply 300 and 10 to get 3000.

$$x=3000$$
