Question
$\frac{\text{x}}{4}=\frac78$
✓
Answer
$\frac{\text{x}}{4}=\frac78$
Multiplying both sides by 4, we get
$\frac{\text{x}}{4}\times4=\frac{7}{8}\times4$
$\text{x}=\frac72$
Verification:
Substituting $\text{x}=\frac72$ in L.H.S., we get
$\text{L.H.S.}=\frac{\frac72}{4}=\frac78,$ and $\text{R.H.S.}=\frac78$
$\text{L.H.S.}=\text{R.H.S.}$
Hence, verified.
