Question

$2\frac{1}{6}÷3\frac{5}{7}=$ $\frac{x}{12}$. Find $x$.

Answer 1

We have,

$2\frac{1}{6}÷3\frac{5}{7}=\frac{x}{12}$

$\Rightarrow \frac{13}{6}÷\frac{26}{7}=\frac{x}{12}$

$\Rightarrow \frac{13}{6}\times \frac{7}{26}=\frac{x}{12}$ [divide $26$ by $13$ we get $2$]

$\Rightarrow \frac{7}{12}=\frac{x}{12}$ [cancelling $12$ both sides]

Hence,

The value of $x=7$
