Question

Solve the proportion using the Multiplication Property of Equality 3\4=x/5

Answer 1

we have

3\4=x/5​

`(3)/(4)=(x)/(5)`

Applying the Multiplication Property of Equality

Multiply both sides by 5

so

`\begin{gathered} (3)/(4)\cdot5=(x)/(5)\cdot5 \\ \\ (15)/(4)=x \\ \text{rewrite} \\ x=(15)/(4) \end{gathered}`

therefore

the answer is x=15/4
