Answer:

Multiply both sides of the equation by c to get c on one side:

x/a * c = b/c * c

This simplifies to:

(x * c) / a = b

Now, to isolate c, you can multiply both sides by a:

(x * c) / a * a = b * a

The 'a's on the left side cancel out:

x * c = b * a

Finally, divide both sides by x to solve for c:

c = (b * a) / x

So, the solution for c is:

c = (b * a) / x
