%284%2F9%29x=6 Start with the given equation



cross%289%29%28%284%2Fcross%289%29%29x%29=%289%29%286%29 Multiply both sides by 9.


4x=54 Multiply



x=%2854%29%2F%284%29 Divide both sides by 4 to isolate x



x=27%2F2 Reduce

--------------------------------------------------------------
Answer:
So our answer is x=27%2F2 (which is approximately x=13.5 in decimal form)
