Question

1. What value of x makes a true equivalent fraction statement.
8/40=x/30

Answer 1

Hey there!

=> 8/40 = x/30

=> (40)(x) = (8)(30)

=> 40x = 240

Divide both sides by 40

=> 40x/40 = 240/40

=> x = 240/40

=> x = 6

Therefore, the value of x makes a true equivalent fraction statement is 6
