Question 509893
6 7/8 divided by 21 3/5 = 4 3/4 divided x
Using improper fractions
{{{(55/8)/(108/5)}}} = {{{(19/4)/x}}}
cross mutiply
{{{(55/8)}}}x = {{{(108/5)*(19/4)}}}
{{{(55/8)}}}x = {{{(2052/20)}}}
multiply both sides by 40, results:
5(55x) = 2(2052)
275x = 4104
x = {{{4104/275}}}
which is
x = 14{{{254/275}}}
