how do i solve 4x/3 = 15?

4x/3 = 15
multiply both sides with 3
4x/3 * 3 = 15 * 3
4x = 45
divide both sides by 4
4x / 4 = 45 / 4
x = 11.25

4x/3 = 15
4x=15 x 3
4x=45
x=45/4
x=11.25

4x/3 = 15
4x = 3(15)
4x = 45
x = 45/4
x = 11 1/4 (11.25)

4x/3 = 15

You have to get rid of the fraction. So remove the 3 from the denominator. Now, in removing the 3, you have effectively mulitplied the whole fraction 4x/3 by 3, so you must do the same thing to the other side, so multiply 15 by 3, giving 45.

so you have 4x = 45

x = 45/4 or 11 1/4

Multiply both sides by 3.

4x/3 = 15
4x = 45

Then divide both sides by 4.

x = 45/4 = 11.25

4x/3 =15
4x = 15*3
4x = 45
x= 45/4
x = 11.25

4x = 45
x = 45/4
x = 11¼
