\frac{89}{100}=\frac{85}{x}
Divide both sides by 100.
89x=100\times 85
Variable x cannot be equal to 0 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by 100x, the least common multiple of 100,x.
89x=8500
Multiply 100 and 85 to get 8500.
x=\frac{8500}{89}
Divide both sides by 89.
