Answer 2

`(4)/(x) =(5)/(10)` [4 over x equals 5 over 10]

Solve for x, so you need to isolate/get x by itself in the equation.

`(4)/(x) =(5)/(10)` Multiply x on both sides

`(x)(4)/(x)=(5)/(10) (x)`

`4=(5)/(10) x` Multiply the inverse of 5/10, which is 10/5, to get rid of the fraction and get x by itself

`((10)/(5) )4=((10)/(5) )(5)/(10) x`

`(40)/(5) =x`

8 = x
