The answer is $x = 2$

We have,

$12/18 = x/3$

Now, multiplying both sides by 3.

$12/18 *3 = x/3 *3$

or $12/6 = x$

Now, From division of 12 by 6

$2 = x$

or $x = 2$

Answer 2 · 2017-11-22T12:30:37

the value of $x$ is $2$

the given equation is $12/18=x/3rArr2/3=x/3rArrx=2$

How do you solve \frac { 12} { 18} = \frac { x} { 3} \frac { 12} { 18} = \frac { x} { 3} ?
