Question

if (2/-7×-3/8)×x=-2/7×(3/-8×1/-7), the value of x is​

Answer 1

Answer:

1/-7

Step-by-step explanation:

(2/-7×-3/8)×x=-2/7×(3/-8×1/-7)

(-6/-56)×x=-2/7×(3/56)

(6/56)×x=-2/7×3/56 [minus-minus deducted]

(3/28)×x=-1/7×3/28[LHS~Simplest Form, RHS~56/2]

x=-1/7×(3/28÷3/28)

x=-1/7×(3/28×28/3)

x=-1/7×1 [reduced 28 by 28 and 3 by 3]

x=-1/7 or 1/-7
