Solve for x : 65x=90 x=

Answer 1

To solve for \( x \) in the equation \( 65x = 90 \), follow these steps:

1. Divide both sides of the equation by 65:

\[ x = \frac{90}{65} \]

2. Simplify the fraction:

\[ x = \frac{90 \div 5}{65 \div 5} = \frac{18}{13} \]

Thus, the solution is:

\[ x = \frac{18}{13} \]

Alternatively, you can express it as a decimal:

\[ x \approx 1.3846 \]

So, \( x = \frac{18}{13} \) or approximately \( 1.38 \).
