Assume question is:-
(3/2) x = 125 (ie not as written)
3x = 250
x = 250 / 3
x = 83 1/3

To figure out the value of X in the equation
3/2X = 125
you need to divide both sides by 3/2. This is hard to write using HTML, but you should remember that diving by 3/2 is the same as multiplying by 2/3. Therefore,
(2/3)3/2X = (2/3)125
The numbers on the left side of the equation cancel out, resulting in 1 (try multiplying 2/3 by 3/2 if you don't believe it), resulting in the equation
X = (2/3)125
This number is (2 × 125)/3, which is the same as
250/3, which is the same as 83 and 1/3 or 83.3333...

Is the question: (a) (3/2) x = 125 or (b) 3/(2x) = 125
for (a) the answer is:
x = 125 / (3/2) = 125 * (2/3) = 83 1/3
for (b) the answer is:
3 = (125) (2x) // 3 = 250 x // x = 3/250
and using your calculator, // x = 0.012

Yes.]
3/2x = 125
(2/3)( 3/2)x = 125 (2/3)
x = 125(2/3)
x= 83.333333333 = 83 1/3

no I hope is: 3 x 1 = 125 x 2x
3 = 250x
x = 3/250

If the problem is two thirds times x, you did it right. If it is 3 over 2x, you did it wrong

math is my speicality nicely if 12 shirts fees $117 then you certainly divide 12 in 117 and you're able to get 9.seventy 5 and that's what one shirt fee so which you're taking the fee of one shirt and situations it via 9 shirts so which you may take $9.seventy 5 situations 9 and that's the respond you're in seek of which could be 87.seventy 5
