Answer 1

To solve the equation \( \frac{4x}{9} = 18 \), follow these steps:

1. Multiply both sides by 9 to eliminate the fraction: \[ 4x = 18 \times 9 \] \[ 4x = 162 \]

2. Next, divide both sides by 4 to solve for \( x \): \[ x = \frac{162}{4} \] \[ x = 40.5 \]

Thus, the solution is \( x = 40.5 \).
