How to solve 6/24 = x/100? Get the answer and stepwise instruction to solve linear equation in one variable 𝒙.

Steps for finding the solution

We have 6/24 = x/100

Cross multiplying the ratios, gives

6 × 100 = 24x

or, 24x = 6 × 100

Divide both sides by 24, which is the coefficient of x
Note: if a = b, then a ÷ c = b ÷ c

Therefore, 24x/24 = 6 × 100/24

x = 600/24

To simplify, divide both numerator and denominator by 24, which is the GCF of 600 and 24:

x = 25/1 or, x = 25
