To solve the equation \(\frac{7}{4}x = 28\), you can follow these steps:
1. Multiply both sides by the reciprocal of \(\frac{7}{4}\), which is \(\frac{4}{7}\):
\[
x = 28 \cdot \frac{4}{7}
\]
2. Calculate the right side:
\[
x = \frac{28 \cdot 4}{7}
\]
First, simplify \(28 \div 7 = 4\):
\[
x = 4 \cdot 4 = 16
\]
So, the solution is:
\[
x = 16
\]
