Question

If 16/x=5/x-1, what is the value of x​

Answer 1

Answer:

We will get the answer by using a method called Cross-multiplication.

$\huge \pink {\tt {\frac {16}{x} = \frac{5}{x-1}}}$

$\large \pink {\tt {\implies 16x - 16 = 5x}}$

$\large \pink {\tt {\implies 16x-5x = 16}}$

$\large \pink {\tt {\implies 11x = 16}}$

$\huge \pink {\tt {\implies x = \frac{16}{11}}}$

Answer 2

16x-16 = 5x

16x-5x = 16..

11x...= 16..
