Question: x/15=3

My answer: 45

Am I correct? Did I make a mistake? I've been having problems with math recently, so I wont be surprised if I made a mistake.

You're right.

x = 45

Thanks for letting me know, I was so confused. So, on questions like this I am supposed to multiply the whole number by the denominator? Example: Question: x/3=12 Answer: 36.

Yes. You're multiplying both sides by the denominator.

Thanks for letting me know.

You are welcome.

To find out if your answer is correct or if you made a mistake, let's solve the equation step-by-step together.

The given equation is:

x/15 = 3

To isolate the variable x, we can multiply both sides of the equation by 15:

15 * (x/15) = 15 * 3

The 15 on the left side cancels out, leaving:

x = 45

Now, comparing your answer with the result we obtained, it appears that you are correct. The value of x is indeed 45.

So, congratulations! Your answer of 45 is correct, and you did not make a mistake in this case. Keep practicing and reviewing math concepts regularly to improve your skills.
