can someone solve this please!!!
100/x = 120/176
banana power banana power
multiply both sides by 176 x
17600 = 120 x
divide both sides by 120
x = 17600 / 120
Oh okay thank you so much :D
To solve for x in the equation 100/x = 120/176, you can use cross multiplication.
First, multiply the numerator of the left fraction (100) by the denominator of the right fraction (176), and multiply the numerator of the right fraction (120) by the denominator of the left fraction (x). Set these two products equal to each other:
(100 * 176) = (120 * x)
Simplify the equation:
17600 = 120x
To isolate x, divide both sides of the equation by 120:
17600/120 = x
Evaluate the division:
x ≈ 146.67
Therefore, x is approximately 146.67.
