To solve the equation (6/7)x = 12 for x, you need to isolate x.
To do this, multiply both sides of the equation by the reciprocal of the coefficient of x, which in this case is (7/6).
((7/6)*(6/7))x = (7/6)*12
The 6/7 and 7/6 on the left side of the equation cancel each other out, leaving just x on the left side:
1x = (7/6)*12
Simplify the right side of the equation:
x = (7/6)*12
Calculate (7/6)*12:
x = 14
Therefore, x equals 14.
solve for x: 6/7x = 12
