Question

5/2.35 = x/12
what does x=

Answer 1

`x = (60)/(2.35)` or
`x = 25.531...`

Explanation:

Step 1: Cross Multiply

`(5)/(2.35) = (x)/(12)`

`5(12) = 2.35(x)`

`60 = 2.35x`

Step 2: Divide both sides by 2.35

`60 / 2.35 = 2.35x / 2.35`

`x = (60)/(2.35)` or
`x = 25.531...`

Answer:
`x = (60)/(2.35)` or
`x = 25.531...`
