3/4(x)=8
Divide 3/4 to both sides. 8 divided by 3/4 is the same as 8*4/3. To divide you have to learn this trick called copy dot flip( basically multiplying the multiplicative inverse) for example the multiplicative inverse of 6/7 is 7/6
3/4(x)=8
x = 8 / (3/4)
x = 8 * (4/3)
x = 32/3 = 10 2/3
To solve the equation 3/4(x) = 8, you need to isolate the variable x.
Step 1: Remove the fraction by multiplying both sides of the equation by the reciprocal of 3/4, which is 4/3.
(4/3) * (3/4)(x) = (4/3) * 8
On the left side, the 3/4 and 4/3 will cancel each other out and leave you with x.
x = (4/3) * 8
Step 2: Perform the multiplication.
x = 32/3
The solution to the equation 3/4(x) = 8 is x = 32/3 or x = 10.67 (approximately).
