Question

What is the value of x in the equation -3/4 = x/24​

Answer 1

X= -18.

So in -3/4 = x/24 , you have to begin by getting the same denominator. 4 goes into 24, 6 times, so you would have to multiply -3 by 6 too for them to be equal.

Answer 2

$\implies {\blue {\boxed {\boxed {\purple {\sf { \: x = - 18}}}}}}$

$\large\mathfrak{{\pmb{\underline{\red{Step-by-step\:explanation}}{\red{:}}}}}$

$\frac{ - 3}{4} = \frac{x}{24}$

➼ $\: x = \frac{ - 3 \times 24}{4}$

➼ $\: x = \frac{ - 72}{4}$

➼ $\: x = - 18$

Therefore the value of $x$ is -18.

$\large\mathfrak{{\pmb{\underline{\blue{To\:verify}}{\blue{:}}}}}$

$\frac{ - 3}{4} = \frac{ - 18}{24}$

➼ $\: \frac{ - 3}{4} = \frac{ - 3}{4}$

➼ L. H. S. = R. H. S.

Hence verified.
