(24)/x =3

Solution

\frac{24}{x} = 3

x = 8

Solution steps

\frac{24}{x} = 3

Multiply both sides by

x

24 = 3 x

Switch sides

3 x = 24

Divide both sides by

3

x = 8

Verify Solutions

Find undefined (singularity) points:

x = 0

Combine undefined points with solutions:

x = 8

\frac{3}{2} = \frac{18}{y - 5}

6 p - \frac{3}{p} = 7

\frac{5}{x ^{2}} - \frac{38}{x} = 16

1 + \frac{7}{x - 2} = \frac{3 x + 7}{x ^{2} - 4}

\frac{5}{x + 8} = \frac{3}{x - 2}
