(18)/(x-2)= 4/3

\frac{18}{x - 2} = \frac{4}{3}

x = \frac{31}{2}

Decimal Notation

x = 15.5

Solution steps

\frac{18}{x - 2} = \frac{4}{3}

Cross multiply

54 = (x - 2) \cdot 4

Switch sides

(x - 2) \cdot 4 = 54

Divide both sides by

4

x - 2 = \frac{27}{2}

Move

2

to the right side

x = \frac{31}{2}

Verify Solutions

Find undefined (singularity) points:

x = 2

Combine undefined points with solutions:

x = \frac{31}{2}

\frac{39}{x + 21} = \frac{49}{13}

4 = \frac{12 b + 8}{b + 24}

x, y = \frac{2}{x}

4 - \frac{1}{t} = \frac{3}{t ^{2}}

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