Solve for x.

Question

x/12=3/2

Answer 1

To solve for \( x \) in the equation

\[ \frac{x}{12} = \frac{3}{2}, \]

you can start by multiplying both sides of the equation by 12 to eliminate the fraction. This gives you:

\[ x = 12 \cdot \frac{3}{2}. \]

Now, calculate \( 12 \cdot \frac{3}{2} \):

\[ x = 12 \cdot \frac{3}{2} = \frac{12 \cdot 3}{2} = \frac{36}{2} = 18. \]

Thus, the solution is

\[ \boxed{18}. \]
