Answer 1

Answer:

$x=\frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{x}{3}=\frac{\frac{1}{4}}{\frac{3}{2}}\quad$

reciprocal

$\frac{x}{3}=\frac{1\cdot \:2}{4\cdot \:3}$

refine

$\frac{x}{3}=\frac{2}{12}$

cancel the common factor:2

$\frac{x}{3}=\frac{1}{6}$

multiply both sides by 3

$\frac{3x}{3}=\frac{1\cdot \:3}{6}$

simplify

$x=\frac{1}{2}$
