Question

If
-5/7=x/28
find the value of x.

Answer 1

Given: -5/7 = x/28

find: x

Solution:

-5/7 = x/28

$- {5 \div 7} \times 28 = x$

x = 20

Answer 2

Answer:

We will get the value of x=-20.

Step-by-step explanation:

• We have to evaluate the above expression by using the given data.

              Given data:- $\frac{-5}{7} =\frac{x}{28}.$

              To find:- Value of the expression.

              Solution:-

• Here we will use the transposition method.

• Transposition is one of the linear equations.

• To solve the transposition method we will Identify the variables and constants.

• Then we Simplify the equation in LHS and RHS.

• Now Simplify the equation using arithmetic operations.

      $\frac{-5}{7} =\frac{x}{28}\\=>x=28\times\frac{-5}{7} \\=>x=\frac{28\times-5}{7}\\=>x=\frac{-140}{7} \\=>x=-20$

    Here the question will be$\frac{-5}{7} =\frac{x}{28}$ and find the value of x.
