Solve 80=x/120*100

$$80= \frac{ x }{ 120 } \times 100$$

Solve for x

$$x=96$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Divide both sides by 100.

$$\frac{80}{100}=\frac{x}{120}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{80}{100} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 20.

$$\frac{4}{5}=\frac{x}{120}$$

Multiply both sides by 120.

$$\frac{4}{5}\times 120=x$$

Express \frac{4}{5}\times 120 as a single fraction.

$$\frac{4\times 120}{5}=x$$

Multiply 4 and 120 to get 480.

$$\frac{480}{5}=x$$

Divide 480 by 5 to get 96.

$$96=x$$

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

$$x=96$$
