Cross multiplying, we get:

$0.1 x$ $0.1x$ $=$ $=$ $1.9 (1.01)$ $1.9(1.01)$

$0.1 x$ $0.1x$ $=$ $=$ $1.919$ $1.919$

Dividing both sides by 0.1:

$\frac{0.1 x}{0.1}$ $(0.1 x)/0.1$ $=$ $=$ $\frac{1.919}{0.1}$ $1.919/0.1$

$x = 19.19$ $x = 19.19$

How do you solve 0.11.01=1.9x\frac{0.1}{1.01} = \frac{1.9}{x}?
