Find the missing fraction:
3/4 x ? = 9/14
What steps do I need to take to find the correct answer?
-----------
Don't use x for multiply, use * (Shift 8)
3/4 * ? = 9/14
Divide both sides by 3/4
? = (9/14)/(3/4)
Invert the divisor and multiply
? = (9/14*(4/3) = 36/42
? = 6/7
------------
It's common to use x instead of ?, which is why you use * for multiply
----
3/4 * x = 9/14
Divide both sides by 3/4
x = (9/14)/(3/4)
Invert the divisor and multiply
x = (9/14*(4/3) = 36/42
x = 6/7
