Question

hey guys what is -3/8=-5/6x

Answer 1

$-\frac{3}{8}=-\frac{5}{6}x$  

Multiply $-\frac{6}{5}$ on both sides to get "x" by itself

$(-\frac{6}{5})(-\frac{3}{8})=(-\frac{6}{5})(-\frac{5}{6}x)$

$\frac{18}{40}=x$

$\frac{9}{20}=x$

Answer 2

Answer:

9/20

Step-by-step explanation:

''1

Simplify 56x\frac{5}{6}x​6​​5​​x to 5x6\frac{5x}{6}​6​​5x​​

−38=−5x6-\frac{3}{8}=-\frac{5x}{6}−​8​​3​​=−​6​​5x​​

2

Multiply both sides by 666

−38×6=−5x-\frac{3}{8}\times 6=-5x−​8​​3​​×6=−5x

3

Simplify 38×6\frac{3}{8}\times 6​8​​3​​×6 to 188\frac{18}{8}​8​​18​​

−188=−5x-\frac{18}{8}=-5x−​8​​18​​=−5x

4

Simplify 188\frac{18}{8}​8​​18​​ to 94\frac{9}{4}​4​​9​​

−94=−5x-\frac{9}{4}=-5x−​4​​9​​=−5x

5

Divide both sides by −5-5−5

−94−5=x\frac{-\frac{9}{4}}{-5}=x​−5​​−​4​​9​​​​=x

6

Two negatives make a positive

945=x\frac{\frac{9}{4}}{5}=x​5​​​4​​9​​​​=x

7

Simplify 945\frac{\frac{9}{4}}{5}​5​​​4​​9​​​​ to 94×5\frac{9}{4\times 5}​4×5​​9​​

94×5=x\frac{9}{4\times 5}=x​4×5​​9​​=x

8

Simplify 4×54\times 54×5 to 202020

920=x\frac{9}{20}=x​20​​9​​=x

9

Switch sides

x=920x=\frac{9}{20}x=​20​​9​​''
