How do you solve 12/48=x/35?

Question

show all work please and thankyouu

Answer 1

35 X 12=420=48x

Answer 2

12/48=x/35

48*x=48x

12*35=420

48x=420

x=8 36/48=8 3/4=8.75

Answer 3

the answer is  8.75

doin;t worry at all here are the steps:

so you have.. the fraction 12/ 48  which is equal to SOMETHING on 35.. and we must find out that something..

By using the cross multiplication (we can use it because in the middle of the two terms we have an = and not a + or a -,...)

you put the 35 on the other side..near the 12... which they become multiplied.. and the answed is 420,.. then you put the 48 near the X which they come 48X...

then we have

420 = 48x

Simple... do subject of the formula.. and the 48 will become on the other side.. which comes (divsion).. because now it is (multiplied).. and when you change the side you must also change the sign..

it comes 420 divided by 48 = 8.75

To check it:Now imagine you have 12/48 which when you work it out it comes 0.25..

And on the other hand 8.75 (instead of the x sign)./ over 35 which comes also 0.25

They match ..so it is true that 12/48 is equal to 8.75 over 35.. so the answer is correct

8.75 :)

Hope you understood me :):)

Answer 4

12/48 = x/35 (simplify fraction at left)

1/4 = x/35 (cross multiply: multiply 4 & x, and 35 & 1)

4x = 35 (divide both sides by 4)

x = 35/4 or 8.75 <===ANSWER

Answer 5

12/48=x/35

x=(12*35)/48

=8.75
