10/14 = x/31
Cross multiply and solve for x.

So if I cross multiply
then 14 x 31=434
10x31=4,350
or
If I reduce 10/14 that would equal 5/7
5/7=1,085/31
Can you check and see if I did this right?

No.
14x = 31 * 10
14x = 31 * 10
Matt-Please Help
So would the answer be 310
Ms. Sue
14x = 310
What is x?
