Solve for x: - 5/6x = - 10/3 x=?

Solve for x: - 5/6x = - 10/3 x=?

x = 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

from the equation, Solve for x: - 5/6x = - 10/3, to solve for x we will first cross multiply

we have; - 15 = - 60x

divide both sides by - 60

-15/-60 = - 60x/-60

x = 15/60 (the minus will cancel out)

x = 1/4

check for your answer by putting 1/4 where you see x

i. e - 5/6 (1/4) = - 10/3

-5 * 2/3 = - 10/3

-10/3 = - 10/3 ... proved!
